You can use the Maven Wagon Plugin.

The Maven Wagon Plugin it allows you to upload resources from your build to a remote location using wagon.

Example of upload of your resorces.

      <extension>
        <groupId>org.apache.maven.wagon</groupId>
        <artifactId>wagon-ssh</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0</version>
      </extension>
    </extensions>

    <plugins>
      <plugin>
        <groupId>org.codehaus.mojo</groupId>
        <artifactId>wagon-maven-plugin</artifactId>
        <version>2.0.0</version>
        <executions>
          <execution>
            <id>upload-javadoc</id>
            <phase>deploy</phase>
            <goals>
              <goal>upload</goal>
            </goals>
            <configuration>
              <fromDir>local.dir</fromDir>
              <includes>*</includes>
              <excludes>pom.xml</excludes>
              <url>scp://your.remote.host/</url>
              <toDir>remote.dir</toDir>
