I recently allowed Verizon to remotely access my computer. The networking software used was GoToAssist by Citrix.
I watched the technician move his cursor around my desktop, change some settings, and enter various websites. In between some activities, there were some long pauses because he was doing some testing from his own end. Throughout the entire session, the modem lights were constantly blinking and data was being uploaded/downloaded nonstop whether or not there was an activity by the technician.
I had a lot of confidential data on the two hard drives installed on this system. How possible is it that he could have downloaded or accessed some of my files, and not have all this visible on my screen?
