Breakdown of Denne søknadsprosessen går raskere når identiteten er bekreftet digitalt.

Why does Norwegian use Denne here, and what’s the difference between denne, den, and dette?

Denne means this and must match the gender/number of the noun it describes.

denne = this (common gender singular) → denne prosessen (this process)
dette = this (neuter singular) → dette huset (this house)
disse = these (plural) → disse søknadene (these applications)
den (and det) usually mean that/it depending on context:
den (common) / det (neuter) can mean it when referring back to something: Prosessen er lang. Den tar tid. (The process is long. It takes time.)
den can also mean that: den prosessen (that process), but denne is this (closer/more immediate).
