Hi Chad
Programmly, I would suggest build a security check function in your cfc which check the caller's IP (in your case the caller is the Apollo app) and caller's username and password.(to retrieve caller's IP, you can have a look at the cgi.REMOTE_ADDR). Then there are two ways you can use this method You can Either call this security function inside the functions you want to secure. But that means you have to pass in username/password for every function you call. Or make the security check function to a web service as well (access="remote"). After checking caller's credentials, build a login session just like a normal login process will do. Then you can check this session variable in the functions you want to secure. Coldfusion web service also support a role base security check which you can have a look at the Adobe live documentation for detail. But I think it's less secure than the above method.
