The security record(s) should be the last record(s) in the file, although
some software (such as SeeYou) can add extra records after the security
record(s).

Security record(s) all start with the letter G. If there are no records in
the file starting with the letter G, there are no security records.

However, as the second character of the first Record in the file is 'X', we
know that this is NOT any kind of IGC Approved recorder.
