Challenge
DropSecure is a secure file-sharing platform renowned for its military-grade encryption and trusted by government agencies and top-tier financial institutions. With a robust web application already in place, DropSecure approached High Digital for support in developing a desktop application that would maintain the same uncompromising level of security.
Approach
We assembled a dedicated development team with expertise in Electron.js to focus on creating the desktop experience. Working closely with DropSecure’s founders and internal developers, we designed and built the application with a strong emphasis on security, performance, and user experience. Key elements of the approach included:
Desktop App Development
Built a secure cross-platform desktop application using Electron.js
UX/UI Collaboration
Co-designed the interface with the client to meet the expectations of high-security users
Security Architecture
Embedded specialist encryption logic and ensured compliance with the highest security standards
Agile MVP Delivery
Delivered a working beta for early testing by trusted super users
Outcome
The new DropSecure desktop app was successfully launched into beta and is currently being tested by super users in real-world conditions. It retains the platform’s high security standards while offering an intuitive, consistent experience across desktop environments.
