Simone Herbert-Lowe is the founder of Law & Cyber and one of Australia’s leading advisers on cyber, privacy and AI law. With more than 30 years of legal experience, she works with businesses, professional associations and law firms on the legal risks that sit at the intersection of technology, compliance and professional obligation.
Simone advises on Privacy Act compliance, the proposed reforms, data breach response and privacy frameworks — including for organisations navigating Australia’s new AML/CTF requirements. On AI, she advises on governance, acceptable use and the professional obligations that now apply under the Federal Court’s GPN-AI and the NSW Supreme Court’s SC Gen 23.
She has educated more than 10,000 Australians about cyber risk, delivered privacy training for large professional associations and national sporting bodies, and given expert written opinion in multi-million dollar Supreme Court proceedings.
Simone is a finalist in the Relativity Innovation Awards, a Lawyers Weekly Women in Law Awards recipient, and a regular speaker for Thomson Reuters, Relativity and industry bodies nationally
