It's the same product, however it was only available in CF Enterprise
through version 5, and considering how long ago CF 5 was released, who
knows how well it would work with a newer version of Siteminder. Might
be worth checking out though. 

Here's a link to the relevant section of the livedocs:

stration/AdvSecurity.htm#1105849

Also, CF had to be installed with the "Advanced Security" option for the
Siteminder stuff to be installed.
