Then it sounds like you are using HTTP, rather than HTTPS or RMC. If you were to change from HTTP to HTTPS and then deny HTTP connections to the GNAT Box and only allow HTTPS connections from your management office, you should be able to do this securely.
The other possibility is that this is exactly the type of thing that the GTA Enterprise Server was designed to do. It communicates with the GNAT Box(es) securely over the RMC connection, and allows you to easily administer groups of GNAT Boxes.
