Using access security

CFC access security lets you limit the code that can access the components. You specify the access to a CFC method by specifying the cffunction access attribute as follows:

Type	Description
private	Available only to the component that declares the method and any components that extend the component in which it is defined. This usage is similar to the Java protected keyword, not the Java private keyword.
package	Available only to the component that declares the method, components that extend the component, or any other components in the package. A package consists of all components defined in a single directory. For more information on packages, see Using component packages.
public	Available to any locally executing ColdFusion page or component method.
remote	Available to a locally or remotely executing ColdFusion page or component method, or to a local or remote client through a URL, form submission, Flash Remoting MX, or as a web service.
