Data, cybersecurity and tech regulation

Giving global leaders the edge in data, cybersecurity and tech regulation’s most complex challenges

We have more than 150 dedicated experts across Europe, the US, and Asia collaborating seamlessly as one global team. We bring together specialists to deliver integrated advice that stands up to multi-regulator scrutiny and navigates overlapping or even conflicting trends in data, privacy, cybersecurity, risk management, tech regulation and innovation.

We have advised on some of the largest global data breaches to date – from ransomware and state-sponsored attacks to insider threats and the exfiltration of hundreds of millions of records – and we’re recognised for handling the follow-on litigation that can arise in courts worldwide.

Clients trust us on strategic regulatory projects such as EU Digital Markets Act and EU Digital Services Act compliance, and online safety regulatory readiness, and we regularly lead on the most significant, data-driven deals that reshape industries.

Ranked among the global data elite, our lawyers regularly share the stage with regulators at leading data and tech conferences – keeping you ahead of what’s next.
