There are a few ways to do this, but it somewhat depends on what your
business goal is. Is your goal to have only people with https
connections get CF sessions? Do you want to protect your entire site
or just part of it?
If you want to enforce SSL one of the best places to do this is on the
Web server. It is fairly common to lock down a portion of a Web site
such that SSL is required. If the locked down portion has a different
ColdFusion application name, then it has different sessions also. If
you don't want the public part of the Web site to set cookies you can
disable this if you treat the public portion as a different
application (having its own Application.cfc).

There are other ways to go about this as well, such as maintaining
sessions without storing cfid and cftoken directly in the cookie,
which would be an added layer of security on top of SSL.
