Can we use SharePoint Online (Office365) Client Object Model to backup site structure and data?
we need to make an application to backup/restore our SharePoint 365 Online site.
Is it feasible to backup/restore the whole site data and structure? what are the limitations?
Yes, the CSOM API can do this with programming. Additionally there are 3rd party solutions that can out-of-the-box replicate / mirror the data to local on-premise applications, e.g. databases, the "Cloud Connector for Office 365".
By using ClientOM you aren't able to impersonate into a system account so you have to ensure that the backup progress will be started by an user having access to all the data.
You can access all the lists and libraries using the ClientOM but I think you should consider lookin at something like this http://www.avepoint.com/sharepoint-online-migration-docave/

i'm about to start a project for sharing files, announcements, and other stuff between branches of a company, it must be a web based system, with all the layers as profile management, employee communication, etc... What i don't know is what's the name of this kind of systems? It's a web based system wich will only allow access to the company's personnel(still don't know how to do that - help please), and must connect the different branches.
I think you're making an Intranet Software or kind of that.
Look here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enterprise_social_software
Software examples
Specific social software tools which programmers have adapted for enterprise use include:
wikis
social bookmarking
social search
Web Content Management System
instant messaging
file sharing
So, you are doing a profile management, file sharing...it looks like an intranet.
Example of intranet: http://www.intranetdashboard.com/
A textbook name I've met for these type of systems is "Knowledge Management Information Systems".

I have an application built in CF 9. As this was developed way long time back, I am trying to implement some security features now. I only have the knowledge of using cfqueryparam to protect the sql injection which i have already implemented in the application code.
But what else do I use to make my application more secure?
I am using ColdFusion 9 and Oracle database.
Can anyone offer any suggestions?
It's a very broad question. But i will give you links that will get you started:
First you need check Administering Security
Then check securing application
Then you need to learn how to lockdown server
As you mentioned, you need to use cfqueryparam in cfquery
Also you need to use best practices while developing application.
I guess this will make your application very secure.
here is the developer security guide to make your CF applications secured. you can download this ColdFusion Developer Security Guide.
This contains all the basics of security enhancement.

I want to backup all the users permission and web parts on my sharepoint, so I can restore them anytime. because few weeks ago, all of user permission and web parts on my sharepoint has gone mysteriously. I've backup all the content, but not the user permissions and web parts. Can it done without using 3rd party software?
Why don't you use regular site collection backups? It includes permissions and web parts:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff607901.aspx
Alternatively you can make regular content database backups:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191304(v=sql.105).aspx
It will also contains all permissions and web parts.
I don't know any way to do that without custom development and I think it is better to backup all content, but it could be useful for you to turn on Audit Reports for site collection. Using this reports you can track changes in your site collection even permission changes. To configure audit look at this link. Also you can look at third party tools for audit.

Hi guys I am new to Sharepoint. Is it a good practice to query the content database tables through the SQL Server Management studio?
Which things need to be considered for Sharepoint testing? As of now I have considered Authorizations and Performance of Sharepoint portal.
Still there are lot of things need to be considered but since I am new to Sharepoint can anyone please guide me on how we do Sharepoint testing and things to be considered for Sharepoint testing?
Any help really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Annop, I can answer your first question. The best practice is to use the Sharepoint API to access the database. The Sharepoint database is proprietary to Sharepoint, and Microsoft recommends that it not be accessed directly (or at least never written to directly). The database contains field names like StringField1, StringField2, NumericField1, etc. so composing a meaningful SQL query would be difficult.
Regarding your second question, the following link contains several resources to help you with Sharepoint testing:

here is a link to help unit testing sharepoint with mocking
http://www.typemock.com/sharepointpage.php
Hope it helps

i have a custom query in a database which i want to display to users in a MOSS via performancepoint webpart.
I need to filter the report based on the username of the logged in user.
How can i pass the AD username to the performancepoint webpart?
Thanks
You'll need to change the BPM.ServerConnectionPerUser property in your web.config files (PPS sites, as well as any SharePoint site using a PPS webpart) to True. Do an IISReset after you do that, and you should be hunky dory.
The reason is that default behavior for PPS is to use the application pool identity to hit all of your data sources, which is a nightmare if your source is a cube (what happened to member level security?!?). Luckily, changing the ServerConnectionPerUser property to True enables this. Nick Barclay went into this quite well on his blog post on the subject.
Cheers,
Eric
