Any method of securing /CFIDE/Administrator/* so that CFM pages are
not executed until after the user authenticates will suffice.  So
Apache basic security, IIs integrated security both work pretty much
the same as they pertain to protecting you here.

alternative of ... ?)

As a related question, If I wanted to restrict access to the CF Admin would
.htaccess on Centos Linux/Apache be sufficient? Or should I put other
measures in place? If so, what other security measures would you all
recommend.

As always, many TIA,
G?

Secunia advisory: http://secunia.com/advisories/40909/

 Being stuck on CF 7, does anyone know if locking down the CF administrator 
pages via Windows authentication is sufficient? (Versus the alternative of ... 
?)

 Thanks,

Yep. I didn't know that because the page that was sent out was
terribly unhelpful. The actual page with the download is here:
http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/857/cpsid_85766.html

The link was in the text in the solution area.

Ben, you might want to tell whoever writes the alerts at Adobe to make
the link to the download a lot more visible.

Thanks
