I would suggest that your security should be at your Webserver level. For
example under IIS do not allow anonymous users. Force them to login using an
NT Username/domain.
You can put a extra layer of securiy into your Application logic, but
because you may have an Intranet which is a combination of htm, cfm etc, you
should not expect the Application server to deal with user security (other
than from restricting application functionality).
