At the same time, it requires a change in working style and entails a change in the demand for HR competencies. The purpose of this paper is to introduce the phenomenon of digitalization in the literature, explore its current key benefits and risks, and analyse its influence on HR professionals´ competencies and roles. The qualitative research includes an analysis of the secondary data describing the existing level of digital skills based on the reactions of more than 7,000 respondents from six EU member states (Germany, Finland, United Kingdom, Portugal, Sweden, and Slovakia). The primary data analysis concerning HR social media competencies collected in five European countries which participated in the SHARPEN project is also presented here. The current trends in HR professional competencies are also described in this paper. The results obtained show that HR professionals tend to be slightly reluctant to adopt technology. The results also confirmed the importance of digitalization for human resources and the increasing demand for digital skills in recent years.

These issues have not yet been systematically addressed in the Czech Republic and there is no statistical data on public attitudes towards biometric data and its use. This article presents an analysis of the current legal regulation, which places a significantly higher standard than the previous legislation on the processing of biometric data as a special category of personal data. The authors considered both particular consequences of the impact of this regulation on human privacy and principles of this regulation as well as the subjective perception of the most important attributes of the behaviour of the main actors. The aim of the article is to contribute to raising the awareness of the risks of using biometric data and to contribute to explaining the key principles of GDPR in its application to biometrics. The article also discusses the related outputs of the sociological survey of CVVM showing that Czech population prefers the protection of their privacy over user comfort (three to one ratio). About 71% of all respondents have heard about biometric data and almost half of them have at least a rough idea what biometric data is. However, only 70% of respondents realize that modern technologies make it possible to collect, process and (mis)use personal data, even without their knowledge or consent.

For IT, a breakthrough is both the cryptocurrency itself as a commodity and the technology that cryptocurrency development has brought. The article focuses on the bitcoin cryptocurrency as the most important cryptocurrency. A relatively unexplored topic is what goods or services are purchased for bitcoins. To track what bitcoins are spent on, it is necessary to look for places that are dedicated to trading cryptocurrencies. The bitcointalk.org forum was chosen as a source for our data mining. The aim of the article is to find an answer to the research question: What are bitcoins on the discussion forum bitcointalk.org planned to be spent on? As part of the research, an application was developed using a PHP script to gather information from the discussion forum (bitcointalk.org). There is some evidence which suggests what types of products or services people spend cryptocurrencies on. This research has proven that cryptocurrencies are used to buy and sell goods or services in the electronics and computer world segments. Today, these segments are widespread, which may speed up the integration of cryptocurrencies into everyday life. This applies, of course, only if the risks associated with cryptocurrencies do not increase.
