chapter devoted to CF):
"HackProofing Your Web Applications" by Jeff Forrisal and Julie Traxler

Subject: Hacking CF Web Sites and Applications
Hi all,
Any one got general advice on how to prevent hackers from getting access to
CF sites via back doors and tampering with data
We dont want the hackers to be able to change data via URL strings.
e.g Encrypting URL variables etc
Anything else we should look at
Any good articles out there?
Thanks
