True to the testament of how crucial LinkedIn has been to make meaningful connections with professionals around the world for me, I discovered Noriswadi via my LinkedIn search for a Data Protection professional. I reached out to him via LinkedIn. I was searching for an author who would be able to prepare a manuscript for me quickly and who has practical experience in data protection, an expert who writes. Noriswadi did not disappoint. In record time, a manuscript was delivered to me in less than two months. To write on a subject matter that fresh off the boat in Malaysia, and do that within that time needed tremendous knowledge and skill of delivery. From that time on, I have been engaging Noriswadi on several more projects. And he has proven to me to be someone who is utterly passionate about data protection - the legal issues surrounding it; the implementation of it; the differences at how different jurisdictions have dealt with data protection issues. I would recommend Noriswadi for his knowledge of data protection. For his ability to understand the framework behind the regulations, and his ability to translate those into meaningful action for companies and individuals.

I have known Noris for nearly 2 years now and I’d like to recommend him for his world class contribution to Data Privacy, and quality consulting services. He is an expert lawyer and consultant in cross-regional EU, ASEAN and APAC data privacy regulations and understands the strategic requirements of business and practical aspects of deployment. He has 2 recent books on the subject and other publications. His approach is to provide holistic support from complex regulatory issues to implementation, compliance to enforcement, using a 360-degree model. Noris is amongst the world's top Asian Data Privacy specialists who lead using the global Privacy by Design framework. I have found him to be an extremely approachable and professional leader in his field, chairing and speaking at international conferences in London, Brussels, Paris, and Singapore for example. Consequently, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him if you need leadership or advice on any strategic initiatives in delivering data privacy at an international or global level.

I would definitely recommend him as the top go-to person for any matters related to data security and privacy.
