Hi all
We have built a CF global bank trading platform, and currently the site is
doing nicely. However the powers that be are moving the hosting of the site
to a new company, who have made the following comments regarding Cold
Fusion. Anybody know if this is true, and what's a good line of argument for
convincing them that CF is the way to proceed into the future? Here is their
statement:
ColdFusion is considered a "high risk application", which means that it can
be installed but the server SLA no longer applies for that server(s).
ColdFusion is a security risk because Allaire has not published the actual
rights required for ColdFusion to run under NT. For this reason, the only
choice when running ColdFusion is to allow the ColdFusion application full
administrative rights. This is a security risk both because any security
flaw in ColdFusion allows the attacker full administrative privileges, and
because #Host# must give administrative control to the customer.
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated
Thanks a lot
Garry Viner
