Viewing a Map of your Security Framework
ColdFusion lets you display and print a map that details all the components of your
Advanced security framework.
To view a map of your currently defined security framework:
1.
Open the ColdFusion Administrator and click the Advanced Security link.
You see the Advanced Server Security page.
2.
Make sure the Advanced Security check box is selected.
3.
Click the Map button at the bottom of the page.
You see a map that lists all the Advanced security components currently defined
on the server, including user directories, security sandboxes, security contexts,
policies, and protected resources.
4.
(Optional) Use your browser’s Print command to print a copy of the map.
An Example of ColdFusion Studio Security
This example shows you how to limit ColdFusion Studio access to a specific set of files
and/or data sources on a remote server based on username/password authentication.
For this example, assume you are responsible for two development groups, Mars and
Venus. Each group needs separate access rules for source files and data sources its
current projects. To provide this access, you will:
1.
Enable Advanced Security.
2.
Specify a user directory for security authentication.
3.
Add a security context for RDS security.
4.
Specify the file and data source resources to protect.
5.
Add a policy for each group of resources/users that you want to give access to the
protected set of resources
6.
To each Policy add the resources that can be accessed by that policy
7.
To each Policy add the users or groups you want to have access to the policy
resources
8.
Enable ColdFusion Studio security and associate the RDS security context you
created with the ColdFusion Studio security.
