Petr Procházka
Virtual CISO | GRC Consultant
I help companies turn security, privacy and compliance into a competitive advantage. Security set up well strengthens customer trust, makes commercial growth easier and opens the way to enterprise clients.
I helped build a security and privacy programme from the ground up, through to international certifications, audits and the demands of large customers. As a CISO and security architect I bring the technical, the procedural and the regulatory together so that they help a company grow rather than slow it down.
Knowing both the Czech and the Slovak implementation of NIS2, I can help you focus on what genuinely matters.

Professional communities
For several years I have mentored with the Women4Cyber initiative. I have had the chance to work with women from across Europe and support them at the start of a career in cybersecurity. I believe this field should be open to anyone willing to learn and grow. Sometimes all it takes is showing where to start.
I am an active member of ISACA and the Cloud Security Alliance. Membership lets me follow current developments in security, privacy and cloud technology, and draw on the expertise of an international community.

Away from work
I recharge by moving. Most often you will find me in the mountains, on a bike, or on skis and ski tours in winter. I play ice hockey, and when I need to rest without moving, I enjoy a good football match.
