At the Faculty of Management, I was one of the founders of a small data center to support education and the school's websites. I established a virtual learning lab to support ICT subjects and learning through practical examples, and I provided space for student and teacher projects. I also publish professional articles in this field. In 2015, I started building the faculty data center. The data center had 180 computing cores, 600GB of RAM, approximately 8TB of storage space, and 60 public IP addresses. It was used for running various academic websites (manazerskainformatika.sk, managementconfs.com, the digicrossgen.fmuk.eu project, kis.fmuk.eu, itplatform.space, itxclub.space, etc.). It also served for teaching courses at the Department of Information Systems (data analysis, databases, computer networks, ethical hacking, web design, cloud computing management information systems, etc.). The data center also provided space for student websites for various subjects and student projects. The operation of the data center at the faculty was discontinued in 2024.

I actively contribute to the project "Professional Lexical Minimum from Managerial and Economic Practice" and participated in its finalization, graphic processing, and technical support in the publication process.

I was a participant in the international conference UNINFOS 2016 (University Information Systems) at Matej Bel University in Banska Bystrica. The conference was organized by Matej Bel University in Banska Bystrica and EUNIS Slovakia, under the auspices of the Minister of Education, Science, Research, and Sport of the Slovak Republic. During the conference, I presented the model of the faculty data center for the subject of ethical hacking.

I represented the Faculty of Management at the "Kam na vysokú Roadshow 2017" exhibition.

The Roadshow took place:

In Banska Bystrica on February 7, 2017, at Hotel LUX on Námestie Slobody 2.
In Presov on February 8, 2017, at the House of Culture Presov, Námestie Mieru 1.
In Kosice on February 9, 2017, at Hotel Centrum / House of Technology, Južná trieda 2/A.

Representatives from Slovak and foreign universities attended the meeting.

I represented the Faculty of Management at the "GAUDEAMUS Brno 2017" exhibition, held from October 30 to November 2, 2017, at the Brno Exhibition Center. At the international exhibition of postgraduate education, I actively presented the study offer at FM UK.

I am the founding member of the ITX Club, established in 2019. The club brings together IT enthusiasts and those who want to develop their skills in this area. ITX Club offers various lectures, workshops, and online meetings, providing a digital space for self-realization and support for various startups. The club is led by Ester Federlová, who organizes ITX Club activities.

I evaluated the project "Professional Lexical Minimum from Managerial and Economic Practice" as part of my activities. Project number: 017 UK - 4/2012. The project was solved with the support of the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the Slovak Republic - Cultural and Educational Grant Agency. My role included finalization, graphic processing, and technical support in the publication process.

I actively participated in the panel discussion with representatives from leading Slovak universities at the IVth year of the EPI CONFERENCE "Cybersecurity 2022." The conference took place in Demänovska Dolina, Hotel Grand Jasná****, from October 3 to 4, 2022. The panel discussion included representatives from various universities and institutions.

I represented the Faculty of Management at the "Kam na vysokú Roadshow 2022" exhibition. The Roadshow took place in Banska Bystrica on October 25, 2022, at Hotel LUX on Námestie Slobody 2. Representatives from Slovak and foreign universities attended the meeting.

I participated in the official visit of the Executive Director of the EU Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA), Mr. Juhann Lepassaar, as one of the representatives of the Faculty of Management. The meeting took place at the dean's office of the Faculty of Informatics and Information Technologies of the Slovak University of Technology on January 26, 2023.

During the meeting, we discussed:

The European framework of roles in cybersecurity (The European Cybersecurity Skills Framework - ECSF)
Preparation of educational schemes
Recording relevant Slovak faculties in the database of higher education programs in the field of cybersecurity in EU member states (Cybersecurity Higher Education Database - CyberHEAD)
Opportunities for exchange programs for students and researchers
Current issues in cybersecurity in the EU and Slovakia
Transposition of the approved EU Directive on measures to ensure a high common level of cybersecurity in the Union (NIS 2 Directive) into the legal order of the Slovak Republic
Planned European legislation on cybersecurity and related fields
Opportunities for accessing funds from directly managed EU funds for cybersecurity

On February 12, 2023, I officially submitted a funding request for a project with EU grants (CALL Cybersecurity and Trust - DIGITAL-ECCC-2022-CYBER-03) on the European Commission - Funding & Tenders Portal. The project is titled "Center for Information Security Management – Comenius University."

On March 5, 2024, together with the partner organization VŠB Technical University of Ostrava, Faculty of Economics, I submitted a project (KA220-HED-18F06268) under the ERASMUS+ program, where I was a co-researcher.

I was one of the organizers of the 26th International Conference on Information Integration and Web Intelligence (iiWAS2024), held from December 2–4, 2024, in Bratislava, Slovakia. The conference focused on the latest trends, challenges, and opportunities in the field of information integration and web intelligence.

On December 18, 2024 I have been granted the role of Team Member for the project ChemSkills (101103234) in the organisation UNIVERZITA KOMENSKEHO V BRATISLAVE.
