# ColdFusion Security Features

ColdFusion Server Professional and Enterprise editions include Advanced Security features that provide scalable, granular security for building and deploying your ColdFusion applications:

- Application development -- System administrators can control access to files, data sources and administration for each developer on your team. Coordinate team development on shared servers with the assurance that sensitive data and applications are secure.
- Application deployment-- Create complex rules to programmatically control access to functionality within applications. Confine applications to secure areas that can flexibly restrict the access applications have to directories, components, databases or other resources on the server.

This chapter describes the ColdFusion Server features that let you integrate a total security solution into your applications.
