In regards unauthorized access, one work-around that I've built in the
past was the following: In a typical CMS, most managed file content is
abstracted into an ID based folder and file structure; these ID's are
stored in the database along with a "friendly" name. When a user wants
access to the file and desires that then name not be 100327.pdf but
instead be more like 2007_Golfball_Inventory.pdf, I simply duplicate
the file to a known fixed location with the name change applied (no
worries about cfcontent or mimetypes). Then either at the request or
session level or in most cases as a CF Scheduled Task I purge the
transfer location after the file has been served. That way if someone
were to bookmark the file path, it would no longer be available (after
a set interval) unless they accessed via the original method.
