GoToMyPC is a complete, turnkey
solution that enables corporations to quickly, easily and securely establish a remote-access
solution without the need for IT infrastructure changes.
GoToMyPC is a Web-based remote-access
solution that enables users to remotely access their computers from any other
Internet-connected computer in the world with almost any operating system through a secure,
private connection.
The GoToMyPC Corporate solution is
composed of three parts, the GoToMyPC Web site, GoToMyPC software and Administration
Center.

How It Works
GoToMyPC is a hosted service, composed of
four components.
1. Host PC – The host PC is the
PC that a user will access from a remote location.
During setup, the user downloads and
installs a small application on the host PC.
This application registers and
authenticates itself with Expertcity's GoToMyPC broker.
For network address and firewall
independence, the host PC software initiates all communication with the broker, issuing
HTTP "pings" to check for new connection requests.
2. Client PC – The client PC is
the PC used to access the host PC. On the client side, the remote teleworker or traveler launches a
browser, visits Expertcity's secure Web site, enters a login and password, and clicks a
"connect" button for the desired PC, which sends an SSL-authenticated, encrypted
request to the broker.
3. GoToMyPC broker – The
GoToMyPC broker is the matchmaker that listens for connection requests, mapping them to
registered computers. When a match occurs, the broker assigns the session to a
communication server. The client and server are supplied with the communication server
address and a unique session ID. At this point, the client PC viewer - a tiny
session-specific executable - is automatically loaded by the browser's Java Virtual
Machine.
4. GoToMyPC communication server
– This component relays an opaque, highly compressed, encrypted stream from client
to server. The client and server mutually authenticate each other, using a shared
secret (a computer access code) known only to them. For scalability, reliability and
optimum performance, the broker load-balances sessions across a pool of geographically
distributed communication servers.
