 say, that Andrew is high-level professional. I know Andrew not only professional in IT-security area, but
and as talented project-manager. He is very competent manager in general: he has a high communicative
competence, excellent organization skills and he is result-oriented. And, that is very important for me,
Andrew uses process-oriented approach in his professional activity and defends the interests of business, but
not some department or people.""

"During my period of working mutually with Andrew for Info Sec Dpt of our Bank where he was Deputy
of Dpt, I got know him as keen-minded and goal-oriented professional. He has excellent work ethics as a
manager. Most importantly, I may say that he is kind of a man who doesn't afraid to take responsibility for
issues which require immediate reaction, as it is very important in IT Security field. I also may say that he is
being very calm, direct but politically savvy in business issues, and friendly with co-workers. He'd used to cut
out many unhealthy situations and work processes which could be happen. His strategies and practical steps
helped to clarify a lot of things,and gained a lot of points for Bank's Security."

me strenghten my knowledge in some aspects of corporate security. Andrew has enough experience and
knowledge to handle the most daunting tasks in IT security. If you're looking for a person who can solve the
