Experience

I have over 20 years of professional experience. I have gained knowledge and skills in both the private and the public sector. Since the very beginning I have worked for the legal sector. For 6 years I was an IT Systems Administrator in the Chancellery of the President of Poland, where I co-created and implemented the highest standards of security and procedures aimed at protecting IT systems and personal data.

GDPR

Since 2018, I have advised the clients of RK RODO how to ensure personal data security in IT systems.

I perform audits of compliance of IT systems with the GDPR Directive, I help to identify gaps and risks related with possible incompliance of the organisational procedures. In risk analysis and data protection impact assessment (DPIA), I support our legal team in assessing security of IT systems.

AS a part of implementation of the GDPR procedures, I prepare and train personnel, increasing their awareness of risks related with personal data processing.

In-house IT

I manage the work of our IT team responsible for proper operation of IT infrastructure, IT and physical security, as well as daily support for the firm’s personnel.

At the same time, I supervise the performance of tasks and projects pursued by our programming team who develop proprietary programmes supporting the work of the other teams in our firm.
