I'm not sure if it'll suit but I've got this (scroll to the bottom - the Security system): http://www.depressedpress.com/Content/Development/ColdFusion/DPLibraries/Ind ex.cfm Unfortunately I've not yet found the time to document it for use, but the component catalog is complete. The main idea of the system is to provide the core needs of security without defining an interface - in other words defining the service but not the look and feel. The system splits information about the user into three distinct (and separately definable components: "Credentials" (information required by the security system), "Entitlements" (information about what the person can do) and "Profiles" (information about the user not required by the system such as address, phone number, etc). The system is CFC-based and a web-services façade could easily be added. I've used the system for some time now on several sites... I'm not sure how it would stand up to any real sustained stress, but it's had some and done well. If you've any questions let me know.
