You may notice that when you dump the application scope in Coldfusion you do not see all application variables. Variables like 'name' are ominously missing from the dump.
<cfdump var="#application#">
I found that getting to information stored in application like applicationtimeout, clientstorage, scriptprotect and session management, you have to dump out application.getApplicationSettings().
<cfdump var="#application.getApplicationSettings()#">
