ABOUT ME
During my education in the field of computer science and many years of experience in Information Technology, I realized that Cyber Security is today the most challenging field. The year 2016 was a turning point when I began to actively engage in this field with the establishment of the National Cyber Security Unit (KOS-CERT) based on the legislation in force which states that ARKEP should also perform the functions of the Computer Emergency Response Center to deal with cyber threats in public electronic communication networks and services.
Although challenging, this unit was created step by step by developing technical and legal capacities based on best practices and projects implemented by international organizations. Now KOS-CERT performs its functions at the national level and is also internationally recognized by being accredited in the TF-CSIRT. In recent years, Kosovo has made efforts to complete the legal framework in the field of cybersecurity, where I was part of the working groups in the drafting of the first National Cybersecurity Strategy and Action Plan and later in the drafting of the Law on Cybersecurity, and other secondary legislation. Being a member of the National Cybersecurity Council, my contribution within this council is in making important decisions related to cybersecurity at the national level.
My commitment to this field has also continued in the academic aspect, having been engaged as a professor at AAB College for more than 12 years, as well as continuing my academic advancement in obtaining my Doctorate degree.
