security permissions for data sources, tags, functions, files, and directories.
Sandbox security uses the location of your ColdFusion pages to determine functionality. A
sandbox is a designated area (CFM files or directories that contain CFM files) of your site to
which you apply security restrictions. By default, a subdirectory (or child directory) inherits the
sandbox settings of the directory one level above it (the parent directory). If you define sandbox
settings for a subdirectory, you override the sandbox settings inherited from the parent directory.
