Great Women in Compliance – Karolina Aleksandrova on Compliance in Eastern Europe and Ukraine

We know Great Women in Compliance are usually superheroes, but this woman takes it to another level. Karolina Aleksandrova is the founder of ProMoney, a consultancy based in Ukraine. Before delving into her career path and how she is building an E&C community in Eastern Europe, she gives us a peek into her day-to-day life. She talks about the people’s resilience and how they continue to live their day-to-day lives, whether taking children to school, working, or hearing warnings of bombings.

Lisa and Karolina spoke about how she got into compliance and building the Eastern European community with her conferences. She talks about the region’s unique needs and how the Eastern European community has united at the events and in their networks. They also discuss how #GWICs can support the E&C community, especially women, who can support our peers in Eastern Europe.

We are grateful for Karolina’s insights. This was her first podcast, and she did it in English. Just wow!

We hope you are enjoying the Great Women in Compliance podcast. If you do, please provide a rating or review and feedback regarding what you would like us to do next.

TechLaw10: Eric Sinrod & Jonathan Armstrong on the Effects of the War in Ukraine

In this edition of TechLaw10, Jonathan Armstrong, Director—L-EV8, talks to Professor/Attorney Eric Sinrod from his home in California. They pick up on a topic from their last film and look at the cybersecurity aspects of Russia’s attack on Ukraine. How has the war played out so far? Who are the winners & losers? And what are the consequences for organizations in the West who have been collateral damage in these attacks?

Eric takes a quick tour of the history of cyberwarfare and considers whether the cyberattacks on Ukraine are a rehearsal for something bigger. Jonathan examines the cybervigilante groups that have sided with Ukraine, including Anonymous. He also examines the activities of the Conti ransomware gang and the issues with insurance in times of war.
