I thought I replied to this before, but I guess it got lost... I do not
secure my datasources on the code level as would be the case of
specifying usernam/password in <cfquery>. I either create a db user with
rights only for that application or I create application roles (sql
server). I also only ever use stored procedures and then I lock down
either the db user or application role to only be able to use stored
procs.

I don't know what dbms you're using, but I use sql server and that's how
I would do it.

Subject: Username/password attribs on CFQUERY


Has anyone got any thoughts on what the implications are for using
username/password attribs in the CFQUERY tag. Obviously on a shared
environment do not want to be placing a username/password on the actual
datasource..

Any other ways of securing datasources?
