Q. I am willing to pay more for it, as its for my law firm, and I need the software to encrypt personal data belonging to my clients.The software has to be professional grade.
A. "TrueCrypt" is one solid encryption software, and there are several 'grades' of file encryption that are perfectly acceptable, but there's far more to data security than just having an encrypted file.
If you've got data worth protecting, then nothing less than perfection will do.
Of equal importance (if not more so) is the deployment of security measures within the organization that address personnel screening, trust and training; protocols for accessing data; hierarchy of control; inheritance of authorization for access (in the event of death or sudden departure within the organization ((both friendly and hostile)), data storage devices; operating system used; Network configuration, data isolation and transport protocols; implementation of, and updating to, threat landscape management; disaster plans for data recovery, whole drive encryption, and so on.
Without a complete "envelope" (including the physical realm) around the data; and who's got the 'keys to the kingdom', any single crack in the armor can lead to one breach which almost always leads to cascading events and eventual meltdown of the security envelope.
If you've not even thought about the above mentioned topics, then there's a good chance you lack the paranoia necessary to implement good solid security.
And hiring someone to manage risk can itself be a daunting task, which ultimately trickles down to "trust" of management on the party selected to do the necessary trench work.
If you don't have the time and inclination to dedicate long hours of studying these concepts and all it implies, you might be ahead of the game if you hire a "PENtest"* just like a bank would do.
Find a trusted organization and contact them about tailoring a test to fit your needs, then analyze those results and implement corrective measures.

Why am I not sore during strength training but am very sore the next day?
Q. I have started working out and when I am doing strength training I find that the exercises are very easy and I feel little to no "burn" when doing them. However the next day, I'm incredibly sore. Is this normal, or am I working out incorrectly?
A. ignore the above answer. its completely wrong. Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness (DOMS) is the body's natural method of recovering and rebuilding. We used to think that it was a result of lactic acid release and you will hear many people who still think it is. Modern Exercise Scientific data has taught us that during intense resistance, you are breaking down microscopic muscle and connective tissue. the pain you feel the next day is the natural recovery process as you body utilizes nutrients to replenishes and rebuilds the damaged tissue. To maximize your recovery process, its important to ensure you get a quality protein and carbohydrate source. I recomend onesource optimal nutrition. Its nutritionally balanced and contains both whey and casein protein. It also has all essential amino acids to expedite recovery.
is it necessary to take training from an Oracle authorized training center for giving OCP 11g Exam?
Q. I am planning to give exam to become Oracle certified professional. Is it enough to study from self study cdrom & books to give OCP 11g exam online or Oracle wants candidates to take training from its authorized traning center to give the OCP 11g exam?
what is the fee requirement for giving each of the exams to become OCP in Oracle 11g?
Your assistance would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

A. An Oracle database system comprises at least one instance of the application, along with data storage. An instance comprises a set of operating-system processes and memory-structures that interact with the storage. Typical processes include PMON (the process monitor) and SMON (the system monitor).
Users of Oracle databases refer to the server-side memory-structure as the SGA (System Global Area). The SGA typically holds cache information such as data-buffers, SQL commands and user information. In addition to storage, the database consists of online redo logs (which hold transactional history). Processes can in turn archive the online redo logs into archive logs (offline redo logs), which provide the basis (if necessary) for data recovery and for some forms of data replication.
The Oracle RDBMS stores data logically in the form of tablespaces and physically in the form of data files. Tablespaces can contain various types of memory segments; for example, Data Segments, Index Segments etc. Segments in turn comprise one or more extents. Extents comprise groups of contiguous data blocks. Data blocks form the basic units of data storage. At the physical level, data-files comprise one or more data blocks, where the block size can vary between data-files.
Oracle database management keeps track of its computer data storage with the help of information stored in the SYSTEM tablespace. The SYSTEM tablespace contains the data dictionary â and often (by default) indexes and clusters. (A data dictionary consists of a special collection of tables that contains information about all user-objects in the database). Since version 8i, the Oracle RDBMS also supports "locally managed" tablespaces which can store space management information in bitmaps in their own headers rather than in the SYSTEM tablespace (as happens with the default "dictionary-managed" tablespaces).
If the Oracle database administrator has instituted Oracle RAC (Real Application Clusters), then multiple instances, usually on different servers, attach to a central storage array. This scenario offers numerous advantages, most importantly performance, scalability and redundancy. However, support becomes more complex, and many sites do not use RAC. In version 10g, grid computing has introduced shared resources where an instance can use (for example) CPU resources from another node (computer) in the grid.
The Oracle DBMS can store and execute stored procedures and functions within itself. PL/SQL (Oracle Corporation's proprietary procedural extension to SQL), or the object-oriented language Java can invoke such code objects and/or provide the programming structures for writing them.
