ColdFusion doesn't care if the request is HTTP or HTTPS, and by
default when a certificate is added to a site in IIS it will be
available for any content loaded through that site.  If you want to
force SSL for that folder there is a setting in IIS to do that (which
will be different depending on the version of Windows/IIS you're on).
In ColdFusion, you can do a test for a couple of variables
(cgi.server_port comes to mind which can be tested for 80 or 443 to
determine which protocol assuming you're using default ports).  From
there you can test and use CFLOCATION if they're on port 80 and direct
to https://.... to force them to SSL through ColdFusion (friendlier
than the error message IIS will give them if they try through non-SSL
and it's marked as required).  If you can give some more detail on
exactly what you're trying to accomplish we can help you better.
