She will spearhead the growth of the firm's cyber offering in Australia
Law & Cyber founder Simone Herbert-Lowe has joined Clyde & Co as the newest partner in the firm’s global Cyber One offering.
She is set to spearhead the growth of Clyde & Co’s cyber practice in Australia.
“Simone’s hire will help further build out our global offering. The firm regularly acts for large corporates who look for one cohesive team of advisors around the world who can handle all client needs. With Simone joining, the Australia practice will flourish and remain a cornerstone of our global offering”, global cyber co-head Helen Bourne said.
Herbert-Lowe brings three decades of experience in legal, insurance, and risk management. For eight of those years, she tackled matters involving cyber risk, governance, and regulatory strategy.
She launched Law & Cyber in 2018 to educate professionals on cyber risk and is currently a principal at the advisory firm. She has been an expert contributor to the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Cybercrime (2024) and an expert opinion provider in Supreme Court proceedings involving email-enabled fraud allegations. She has also been on the steering committee of the Cyber Risk and Governance Group at the Australasian Society for Computers + Law.
Clyde & Co’s Australia managing partner Rebecca Kelly added that Herbert-Lowe would be “instrumental in growing our Australian cyber offering”.
“Cyber incidents are front of mind across the business community, and we look forward to helping our clients navigate this risk”, Kelly said.
Herbert-Lowe operates from Clyde & Co’s Sydney office.
