  On a Linux system, the user can only edit files that are owned by them or that have open permissions. So really all you need to do is create a user with SSH access.

  Hello :) You could assign a user jailed-shell access and that will limit the user to actions on their own account. However, I'm not sure I understand the purpose of allowing a user to see every file on the system, but not have the ability to modify those files. The ability to view all files on the system would be a security risk itself. Thank you.
