Tectia (owner of the ssh.com URL) sells a product that isn't based on
OpenSSH at all.  It isn't free or open source so you'll have to give
them money, but if you want to read up on it, here is their website:
http://www.tectia.com/en/en.iw3

It's been years since I've used it.  I used it before they changed
their name to Tectia but I'm pretty sure it is still SSH under the
hood.
