      Marek Miałkowski

      Expert in the Field of Analysis and Criminal Intelligence

      I am a former Police officer and an expert in criminal analysis, criminal intelligence, and crime prevention. 

      I hold a degree in Internal Security from the Police Academy in Szczytno (formerly the Higher Police School in Szczytno), where I gained solid theoretical and practical foundations in the field of crime analysis. 

      Throughout my professional service, I acquired extensive experience as a criminal analyst at the Provincial Police Headquarters in Olsztyn and at the board of Olsztyn Division of the Central Bureau of Investigation of the Police. In the final years of my service, I worked as a senior lecturer at the Police Academy in Szczytno, teaching students, delivering officer training courses, and educating future experts in criminal analysis. 

      I specialise in the analysis of criminal, narcotics-related, economic, and corruption-related offences, as well as in the investigation of missing and fugitive persons. I am a certified instructor of the AGH LINK analytical environment and conduct training in its application. 

      My professional interests include OSINT, cybercrime, big data, structured and unstructured data analysis, telecommunications, and modern technologies supporting information gathering and analysis. 

      As a court expert in criminal analysis, I prepare expert opinions for courts, public prosecutors, and police units, providing crucial analytical support for investigations and judicial proceedings. 

      Privately, I am passionate about badminton and aviation. These interests help me recharge and maintain balance outside the world of criminal analysis.
