Our Values
At the heart of our firm is Laura O’Neill, our Founder, CEO, and Data Protection Officer, who brings over 8 years of specialised expertise to every project. Laura's leadership is already evidenced by our pragmatic approach to compliance. To ensure comprehensive support, Laura collaborates with an extensive network of highly experienced consultants, allowing us to deliver tailored, expert-led solutions for every client.
Data Protection Pro was founded on a simple observation. Organisations of every size, all sectors need genuine, practical support to manage data protection well not just ticking boxes. We plan to become a trusted partner who understands the regulatory landscape and the data to day reality of running a business. Data Protection Pro have been shortlisted for Cyber Security and Data Protection SME at the RISK awards 2026.
Organisations are left to navigate complex data protection requirements alone. Laura founded Data Protection Pro to change that bringing clear, actionable guidance that supports organisations in a meaningful way.
