To ensure reliable transactions and secure confidential information, web services requires very high level of security which can be only achieved through Entrust Secure Transaction Platform. Security issues for web services are broadly divided into three sections as described below
- Confidentiality: A single web service can have multiple applications and their service path contains a potential weak link at its nodes. Whenever messages or say XML requests are sent by the client along with the service path to the server, they must be encrypted. Thus, maintaining the confidentiality of the communication is a must.
- Authentication: Authentication is basically performed to verify the identity of the users as well as ensuring that the user using the web service has the right to use or not? Authentication is also done to track user’s activity.
- Network Security: This is a serious issue which requires tools to filter web service traffic.

Import Wizard is designed for less-technical users and smaller, simple imports of up to 50,000 records. It is a step by step process and displays error messages to alert the potential record duplications (“dupes”).
Apex Data Loader is used for complex imports of any size. It doesn’t display error messages to alert the potential problems. This tool includes several features that help in making large data imports easier.

MemberJuly 5, 2018 at 6:26 am in reply to: Why do we write startTest() and stopTest() methods in Test Class in Salesforce?Hello Shradha
Test.startTest is used to mark the point in your test code when your test actually begins. Each test method is allowed to call this method only once. After you call this method, you get a fresh set of governor limits for the remainder of the test until you call Test.stopTest.
Test.stopTest is used to marks the point in your test code when your test ends. Each test method is allowed to call this method only once. After calling this method, any post assertions are done in the original context.
