1. A method for encapsulating remote access session data, comprising:
- receiving, from an end user computer, a request for a remote connection to an onsite system behind a firewall, wherein the firewall prevents inbound connections;
initiating, by a central system, a session request message within a reply to a previous message from the onsite system;
establishing a connection between the onsite system and a remote connection server;
opening a secure tunnel at the central system by the onsite system;
encrypting data for transmission by the onsite system;
completing an authentication process by the onsite system;
establishing a connection between the end user computer and the onsite system; and
transferring the data from the central system to the onsite system.

Abstract
Embodiments of the disclosure can include systems and methods for secure remote transfers. The onsite monitoring system secure file transfer solution can allow for transferring operational data by an onsite system behind a firewall to a central monitoring and diagnostic infrastructure by sending asynchronous, concurrent, parallel files over a port using a previously opened connection. The asynchronous TLS tunneling based remote desktop protocol solution is uni-directional because the communication ports are typically open outbound only.

19. One or more non-transitory computer readable media comprising instructions, which when executed by one or more processors, perform the following operations:
-
receive, from an end user computer, a request for a remote connection to an onsite system behind a firewall, wherein the firewall prevents inbound connections; initiate, by a central system, a session request message within a reply to a previous message from the onsite system; establish a connection between the onsite system and a remote connection server; open a secure tunnel at the central system by the onsite system; encrypt data for transmission; completing an authentication process by the onsite system; establish a connection between the end user computer and the onsite system; and transfer the data from the central system to the onsite system.
