Question remote key lock ( is it secure )

While I was investigating the different type of security systems I noticed that some of them advertise that their remotes only send the code once, this is to prevent somebody "reading" the code and opening your truck with your own code. Does the Ford remote have some kind of security against code grabbing? I tried to reseach this before writing this but have not found this question or answer anywhere.

from what i've read somewhere, the ford remote systems since 98(i think) have rolling
codes. they are the ones with the smaller(one
battery) remotes. I do know that the large
remote for my 96 ranger will not program into
my supercrew.
