The challenge and the solution

Our cooperation with Felix Security started in 2016, at that time our client needed help with technology development. Felix management team had an experience of hiring freelancers on the services like Upwork but then decided to look for a long-term reliable and trustworthy partner. Felix Security wanted to get the product to market in less time with a possibility to scale in the future and the best way to accomplish this was partnering with an agency.

ELITEX augmented the client’s expertise with seasoned engineers, who got involved in several parts of the work, across multiple projects.

From a frontend perspective, ELITEX developers examined the different parts of the product and advised on how it could be improved. It helped Felix Security to tweak the company’s technology side. Another achievement of our front-end engineers was developing graphical UI from scratch, as a fully custom solution.

On the backend, ELITEX engineers in conjunction with the client’s in-house team worked on building the cloud part and connecting it with the frontend side. Felix chief scientist was heavily involved in terms of the technologies used and provided oversight to the remote dedicated development team.

After the main part of the project was completed, ELITEX C++ developer continued to work on further cybersecurity platform enhancement and updates based on new OS releases. Helped with the development of system programs features to protect PC from malware or ransomware attacks, and monitored user actions to identify its potentially dangerous steps.

From a project management standpoint, while ELITEX handled the payroll of the team, Felix could maintain contact with the remote employees as though they were their own. The code was stored securely and could be used for the further releases and changes for the customer to reference for documentation later on.

During the cooperation, ELITEX experienced developers reviewed the existing code and gave recommendations on how to improve it. This helped the client to fine-tune the technology, enhance the product and introduce it to the market quickly.
