Business Applications

Effective user management is essential for any business application. At Dekkode, we understand the importance of security and ease-of-management when it comes to handling medium-to-large user bases. That's why we specialize in building robust, fast, and user-friendly user management systems that meet the needs of both end-users and administrators.

Our user management systems include a range of features designed to ensure security and convenience, including:

• Safe passwords and encryption: We use strict encryption to protect your user data, both in storage and in transit.

• Two-Factor Authentication: We offer Two-Factor Authentication options to add an extra layer of security to your user management system.
• Authorization: Our user management systems include flexible authorization controls to ensure that users have the appropriate access to the features and resources they need.
• Fine-Grained permission controls: We offer fine-grained permission controls to give you granular control over user access to specific resources and features.
• Role-Based permissions: We support Role-Based permissions to make it easier to manage access for large groups of users.
• Import/Export: Our user management systems include tools for importing and exporting user data, making it easy to manage large user bases.
• Audit Trail: We provide an audit trail to help you track user activity and ensure compliance.

APIs are an essential part of modern software development, allowing applications to share data with each other and third-party services. At Dekkode, we have extensive experience building and integrating APIs for a wide range of purposes and technologies.

Our API integration services include:

• Integration with legacy systems and existing APIs: We can help you connect your applications to older systems or integrate with third-party APIs.
• Providing REST APIs: We specialize in building REST APIs that are independent from your internal data model, performant, and secure.
• Third-party APIs: We have experience integrating with popular APIs like SAP, Office 365, Teams, and Slack, as well as custom applications.
• Import/Export: We support a range of import/export formats, including CSV, XML, REST, and SOAP, to make it easy to transfer data between systems.

Whether you need to connect your applications to legacy systems, expose data to third parties, or simply make it easier to share data between your own applications, we have the expertise and tools to help. Contact us today to learn more about how we can support your API integration needs.

Information security is a very important issue in today's world. Information security is the security of information in computer and telecommunications networks. This security involves protecting electronic data from theft or damage to the hardware, as well as from unauthorized modification, disclosure, or destruction.

Security cannot be done on-top of an existing application. It has to be an integral part during design, development and maintenance in the full software lifecycle. The inital threat model is the very first starting point that helps you find risks, take action against them and create a secure architecture.

Penetration tests should be performed regularly, but is never a replacement for continuous monitoring and both software and hardware maintenance.

The laws of the European Union, and the GDPR in particular, are intended to protect the rights of data subjects and ensure that the processing of data is performed in a lawful, fair and transparent manner. The GDPR applies to all companies processing and/or holding the personal data of data subjects living in the European Union, regardless of the company’s location.

We believe that privacy is a fundamental right and that no one should be deprived of their data. That’s why we build our software from the ground up with privacy at the core of the design. In practice, this means we ensure that privacy is built into all stages of the development process and embedded as a key part of our technology. Privacy is always taken into consideration when making decisions about what to build and how to build it.

The most  relevant rights for data subjects are:

• The right to be informed: informing users with a clear privacy notice
• The right of access: exporting all data of a data subject
• The right to erasure: search for a data subject and delete some or all their data.
• The right to rectification: you can search for a data subject and delete some or all their data.
• The right to object: let your users easily opt-out on your privacy policy page.

Developing high-performant applications, is not about styling, or any other superficial aspects. It's really about understanding the fundamentals of an application, and how it behaves when it has to deal with a high load, or when there are too many requests to handle. It means understanding and understanding how an application is wired, and what happens to all of its components when they are loaded. It also means understanding how a web browser works, so that you don't waste time trying to make it do something it cannot do. Performance is always the result of a complex interaction between hard- and software. You have to build the right foundations, and then you have to carefully lay the bricks of your application. In the end, if you do it right, you'll end up with a nice looking, clean, and fast application.

10 Million pairs of glasses are sold every year in Germany, about 600.000 people in Germany are visual impaired (RKI). Ten thousands of people have limited movement and cognitive abilities, many more suffer from temporary symptoms. Making applications accessible to anybody is essential for anyone creating high-quality products and not to exclude people from using your product and services.

Search is the process of finding information one is looking for. Today, users are used to fast, complete and intelligent search based on the search engines they are using on the world wide web. Many business applications deliver a poor search experience, since search is often seen as an “add-on” to the classical hierarchical navigation. In reality, search is one of the most convenient and powerful ways user interact with an application – if done right.

Fast and Smart
Search results should be visible instantly in the best case, but must never take longer than 1 second. This performance is only possible if the application is built for search, e.g. by using a dedicated full-text search engine such as ElasticSearch. It must be tolerant against typos, search for synonyms and offer suggestions to the end user. Results must ranked properly, and link directly to the according views inside the application.

What we did with Search:

• Extensive search functionality, search services
• Extracting text from pdfs, excel sheets, websites and images
• Facetted search, allowing to combine filters and free-text search
