My understanding of GTMPC is that when a session from a host PC to a remote
computer is established, a unique access code is generated from the host PC,
which is never transmitted or stored on GTMPC/Citrix servers. From there,
GTMPC does an end-to-end AES 128-bit encryption of all data so that the
screen and keyboard data cannot be intercepted by anyone.
