Cyber and information security

We provide comprehensive legal services in the field of cyber security and information security. In today’s digital world, data is one of the most valuable assets of both private companies and public administration organizations. Protecting this data is essential not only for successful business, but also for the effective and secure functioning of public institutions. European and Czech legislation impose a number of obligations relating, for example, to IT infrastructure security, regular risk assessment, the introduction of internal procedures for incident response, and the reporting of cyber-attacks. The scope of obligated entities has recently been significantly expanded to include organizations that were not previously subject to any legislative obligations.
We provide our clients with practical and functional tailor-made solutions, which we adapt to the individual needs of each client in cooperation with our colleagues who are experts in technical and subsidy issues.

The basis is a thorough legal analysis of the impact of the legislation (NIS2 Directive, DORA Regulation, Critical Infrastructure Act, Cybersecurity Act and its implementing regulations) and a gap analysis to help map the threats in the client’s existing environment. Based on the findings, we provide legal and technical consultations for the implementation of key security measures in cooperation with the client’s expert representatives.

We help clients integrate cyber and information security systems into their organizations and human resource management so that employees are not only informed but also actively contribute to the protection of sensitive data, information, and systems. We are able to incorporate the proposed measures into contracts concluded with suppliers and ensure that the client’s supply chain complies with the requirements of cyber legislation. We also provide analyses and implementation steps for suppliers who offer and provide goods or services.

We represent clients before public authorities in connection with obligations arising from cyber legislation (including the designation of regulated services) or in the administration of selection and tendering procedures in the field of cyber security.

We are also able to perform subsidy screening and apply for subsidies on behalf of clients to strengthen cybersecurity in their organizations.
