But to note, a determined hacker will never be stopped, they all seem to manage to get around whatever defenses you put up against them!

We use ColdFusion and we have ratified it secure; and our business, like your expert works with DoD (and intelligence) on both sides of the pond. We HAVE to be secure. Your expert again is misguided, ColdFusion itself is NOT open source (the product), apps can be yes but that is not the duty of MM to protect. An application is only as secure as you buld it. Just because someone is experienced doesn't de facto make them knowledgable - in this case it's way off (a consultant should always get knowledge and understand it rather than using hear'say) All software is flawed/ships with bugs, ColdFusion is no exception but I do know that security is paramount when they build it. In fact you are far more likely to get/find a security issue with the JVM or the OS than you see with the ColdFusion.
