What you can do with RDP if you use WTSGateway Pro. Same idea. A gateway but for RDP.

I don't care what your encryption is, having to expose your servers is never good.

However, to realize full SSL potential both server and client should have private certificates - not just the server (which is the case in 99% of cases - server has private cert and client has access to server's public cert). Unfortunately this is hard to achieve with outside users where connection security is the most vulnerable. Regarding "pure" ICA versus RDP - Citrix is relying on Microsoft's encryption providers/technology (certainly on Windows) and thus it is hard to expect any advantages of ICA over RDP.
