Village websites currently generally only provide information in the form of an interface for users, such as village profiles, potential areas, population data, and current news. However, the majority are not yet equipped with Application Programming Interface (API) support that allows for flexible and automated data integration and exchange. This is a challenge when dynamic access is needed by third-party systems, such as public service platforms, mobile applications, or local government information systems, which require real-time and accurate synchronization of population data. The project aims to implement a RESTful API that can be accessed securely, efficiently, and easily understood by developers to retrieve villagers' data. The development of the system is carried out using the Agile method, which supports rapid iteration and periodic evaluation to ensure that each feature functions optimally according to the needs of users and field conditions. This Agile method is applied in several sprints that include the stages of needs planning, designing the API endpoint structure, coding, documentation, and testing of the integration and security of the system as a whole. The results of the implementation show that the API successfully retrieves data directly from the village database, and presents it in a JSON format that is compatible for use by both frontend and third-party systems. This API supports pagination features for efficient access to large amounts of data, and is equipped with Basic Authentication to keep data access secure from being abused. With this API, the village website not only becomes a static information medium, but also transforms into a digital service platform that is open for cross-system integration. This supports the development of a more modern, efficient, sustainable, and collaborative village information system in the future, so that public services can be significantly improved.

Small-scale economic activities, such as micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), play a vital role in a region's economy. MSMEs need to be protected and empowered to prevent unfair competition between businesses, especially those involving large-scale businesses. One example of an MSME with great potential is the amplang (rice crackers) manufacturing business, a typical souvenir from Balikpapan. Amplang has a distinctive taste and is attractive to tourists visiting the city, and has the potential to be further developed in the future. However, during the community service process, several problems were discovered among these MSMEs. One of the main problems is the lack of online product marketing expansion. These MSMEs still rely on traditional marketing methods, which are limited to direct sales or through local markets. However, with technological developments and high internet usage, the use of social media for product promotion can have a significant impact on increasing sales and market reach. To address this issue, market share expansion was carried out by utilizing social media, which has not previously been used by these MSMEs. Social media platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and WhatsApp can be highly effective platforms for introducing amplang products to a wider market, both locally, regionally, and nationally. Furthermore, this community service program also provides business development assistance by providing training to MSMEs in social media management, engaging content creation, and appropriate digital marketing strategies. With this introduction to online marketing and mentoring, it is hoped that amplang MSMEs in Balikpapan can better develop their businesses, expand their market reach, and increase their competitiveness in an increasingly competitive market.

Rapid technological developments have penetrated various aspects of human life, including data and information security. Amidst the threat of data leaks and misuse, information protection has become crucial. One solution to maintain data confidentiality is to implement cryptography technology. Cryptography is the study of techniques to secure messages so they cannot be read by unauthorized parties. This process is carried out by encoding the original message (plain text) into an unreadable form (cipher text), which can only be understood by those who possess the key to decrypt it. This study used the Caesar Cipher algorithm, a form of classical cryptography. This algorithm uses a substitution method, where each letter in the message is shifted by a certain amount based on a predetermined key. Caesar Cipher is a symmetric algorithm, meaning the key used for encryption is also used for decryption. The security of this algorithm lies in the secrecy of the key, which is known only to the sender and recipient of the message. This method is relatively simple, but still relevant for securing data with low to medium sensitivity levels. This study used WhatsApp messages as the object to be encrypted using the Caesar Cipher algorithm. The results show that encrypted messages become unintelligible without prior decryption. This demonstrates that the Caesar Cipher can protect messages from unauthorized parties. Therefore, implementing this algorithm can be an initial solution for maintaining data confidentiality in digital communications, especially on platforms vulnerable to eavesdropping or unauthorized access. Its primary benefit is maintaining message integrity and confidentiality to prevent misuse.
