Naive. There's not much that prevents you from running ssh over https. Not even traffic patterns will give you up in the age of ubiquitous websockets and/or http2 streams.

It will absolutely and trivially be detected by any decent IDS/IPS

SSH does nothing to hide it is SSH (tho "I'm just https" mode would certainly be welcome addition)

Even with corporate MITM setups? I somehow doubt it..

  • MITM only works if you allow trust in corporate CA on the outbound HTTPS connections. And why would you?

    • Its not always the case but many of MITM-ing corporate firewalls are going to immediately drop any TLS connection they can't decrypt on the basis they're coming from an unauthorised device.
