Why Cisco is not using ssh on it's routers ?? all the world know that telnet is clear text and can cause problem !!!!
 
cisco has been using ssh on the routers although you need an IOS that supports it.

well here's a little-known option that's been around for years

if have a *nix box, you could
-set up a kerberos domain
-join your routers to it
-do encrypted telnet sessions to it

this may also hinge on the IOS version also
