Hi,<br />
I have a proprietary PDF document that I want only customers to be able to download after they log in and get to the download page. &nbsp;I know I can just use an HTML link to the the pdf document location on our site - but this displays in the HTML source and would be accessable by everyone who saw that.<br />
<br />
Is there a Coldfusion technique to at least hide the link to the document? &nbsp;Any other suggestions.?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance,<br />

Secure Document Download : ColdFusion

A web server refers to the software that helps to deliver web content that can be accessed either through the Internet or through an intranet. The primary function of a web server is to store, process and deliver web pages to clients. The communication between client and server takes place using the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The most common use of web servers is to host websites, but there are other uses such as gaming, data storage, running enterprise applications, handling email, FTP, etc.

Web Servers

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.
