Student organizations in higher education institutions play a pivotal role in fostering leadership and collaboration. Despite their importance, many still utilize manual document administration processes, resulting in inefficiencies, delays, and a lack of transparency. This research introduces the design and implementation of a web-based Document Management System integrated with Hierarchical Role-Based Access Control (HRBAC) for student organizations at Universitas Tarumanagara. The system adopts a structured and secure framework tailored to the organization’s approval hierarchy, encompassing roles such as UKM/HIMA, BEM, DPM, Faculty Advisors, Deans, and the Student Affairs Office. Each role is assigned specific access privileges to ensure secure and efficient document submission and approval workflows, aligned with organizational needs. The system was developed using the Laravel framework, PHP, HTML, SCSS, JavaScript, and MySQL, following the Waterfall methodology. Usability was evaluated using the System Usability Scale (SUS), achieving a score of 78.33, categorizing it as “Good” in terms of user experience and navigability. The findings indicate significant improvements in process automation, role-based access control, and document traceability. This research offers a comprehensive model for digital transformation in student organization administration, emphasizing the effectiveness of hierarchical access control in optimizing administrative workflows within academic institutions.

The security of digital data has become crucial in today's era of information exchange. Many data breaches occur due to weak file protection in web-based systems. This research aims to design and develop a web-based file encryption system using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm, where file access is restricted only to users who possess a valid ID Card or QR Code as an authentication key. The software development approach adopted in this development is the Waterfall methodology, which follows a sequential process consisting of requirement analysis, system design, implementation, and testing phases. The software was built using the Laravel framework with key features such as automatic file encryption upon upload, folder management, and additional authentication through ID Card or QR Code scanning. Administrator has full access to manage users while regular users can only upload and manage their private files. The implementation result show that files were successfully encrypted and can only be accessed using a valid ID Card. The AES encryption process effectively secures file confidentiality, while the use of an ID Card enhances access security to the uploaded files. Therefore, this software can fulfills the research objective of improving file security in web-based systems.

Asset management is the management of asset data by grouping assets based on groups or recording assets in detail with the aim of organizing asset data so that they are well organized. Asset management in Serang City Village still uses conventional methods, especially asset management data collection in Sumur Pecung Village where the data collection still has several shortcomings and problems such as not explaining the layout of assets in detail, the layout of the location of assets, causing loss of one of the assets, the existence of duplicate data, lack of detailed information and poor data collection, namely data that is not integrated by inspectorate employees, especially every asset inspection report by inspectorate employees is not the same in writing this report format. This study aims to create an asset management information system by reducing problems that still use conventional methods. The data collection methods used are interviews, observation, and documentation to obtain accurate data. The software development used is the Waterfall model which is part of the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) with stages of needs analysis, system design, implementation, integration and testing. Business process modeling uses the Unified Modeling Language (UML) with Use Case Diagram models, Activity Diagrams, and Sequence Diagrams. This information system which will later become a webbased application, was built using the Laravel Framework and several programming languages such as PHP, Java Script, CSS and MYSQL database. With this application, it can reduce asset management problems in Sumur Pecung Village in its data collection.

Background and Purpose: Fintech lending, also known as online lending, has experienced fast growth in Indonesia in recent years through digital platforms. Online lending is supplanting the financial intermediation function hitherto predominantly held by banks. This study examines the factors influencing Indonesians' inclination to transition from traditional banking services to online lending. It seeks to understand the appeal of online lending, which has enabled it to supplant Indonesian banks in financial intermediation, employing the Push-Pull Mooring theory. Methodology: This study used a nonprobability sampling technique to choose 200 respondents who are consumers of banking services and have transitioned to online lending. Data was gathered through Google Forms and subsequently analyzed utilizing SEM-PLS 4.0. Findings: The findings indicate that pull variables exert the most significant impact on the inclination to transition to online lending, with push variables following closely behind. The variable "switching barrier" does not influence the intention to switch to online lending. However, switching costs and low financial literacy significantly impact the switching barrier. Additionally, the moderation effect does not enhance the relationship between dissatisfaction with banking and the appeal of online lending. Online lending has attracted users by providing a value proposition that includes easy digital onboarding, quick loan processing and payout, and unsecured credit options for unbanked customers. The influence of brand loyalty on customer choices when selecting an online lender is minimal. Contributions: This study aims to enhance marketing theory and consumer behavior understanding by investigating the factors influencing Indonesians' intention to transition from traditional banking services to online lending, specifically focusing on Push-Pull and Mooring factors.
