It means that the executable file /usr/sbin/sshd which the report line refers to has been deleted between the time of the audit log entry and the time of the report. The most probable cause is that it has been replaced by an update. This explanation is supported by the fact that there is another line /usr/sbin/sshd without the mention deleted which would refer to the updated executable which was present at the time the report was created.

Hello @Tilman Schmidt, thank you for you response i was suspecting this reply i wanted to make sure. The only thing that worries me in this case is that i have not made any updates and the server is not configure for automatic updates. i need to find what is going on.

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
