Solution

The command that can be used to verify the authenticity of an SSH public key, ensuring that it belongs to the expected user is:

a. ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

This command will display the fingerprint of the public key, which can be compared with the fingerprint of the key on the user's system to verify its authenticity. The other commands listed do not perform this function.

b. ssh-keyscan user@remote_host - This command fetches the public key of the remote host. It does not verify the authenticity of a user's public key.

c. ssh-keygen -lf ~/.ssh/known_hosts - This command shows the fingerprints of
