Global legal support for evolving cyber threats - fast, focused, and informed
ILG members provide comprehensive support in cyber and data risk, combining cross-border coordination with deep local expertise. As cyber threats grow in scale and complexity, so too does the need for legal strategies that are both agile and technically informed. Our collective experience spans incident response, insurance coverage, data privacy compliance, and regulatory defence—ensuring that clients receive seamless, strategic guidance wherever a breach occurs.
We advise clients across the full spectrum of cyber-related legal issues, including first- and third-party claims, data breaches, ransomware events, digital infrastructure compromise, and liability arising from emerging technologies. Our services include policy coverage advice, breach notification support, coordination with digital forensics providers, regulatory reporting, defence of enforcement actions, class action litigation, subrogation, and crisis communications. We also support insurers in drafting, interpreting, and litigating cyber policy wordings, including intersection with other lines such as D&O, E&O, and property.
Our clients include global insurers and reinsurers offering cyber products, as well as businesses across sectors most exposed to cyber risk—financial services, healthcare, energy, telecommunications, logistics, and public institutions. ILG member firms work closely with claims handlers, brokers, and in-house legal teams to deliver timely legal support during incidents and provide risk advisory services to mitigate future exposure.
ILG members have supported clients through high-profile cyber events involving mass data compromise, system-wide shutdowns, ransom attacks, employee error, and coordinated phishing and fraud schemes. We have handled cross-border regulatory investigations involving data protection authorities, advised on parallel litigation arising from privacy breaches, and defended complex multi-claimant actions with reputational and financial stakes. Our collective footprint allows us to offer coordinated response to cyber claims involving overlapping jurisdictions and competing legal frameworks.
To stay at the forefront of this rapidly evolving field, ILG members are actively engaged with leading cyber and privacy organisations including the International Association of Privacy Professionals (IAPP), the ABA Cybersecurity Legal Task Force, the Cyber Risk Institute, and CLM’s Cyber & Privacy Claims Committee. In addition with CyXcel, a next-gen professional advisory business - created to manage crises, solve challenges, and seize opportunities for everyone in the digital world. Through these networks and collaborations, our teams remain closely aligned with the latest developments in data protection, emerging threats, and insurer preparedness - ensuring our advice is not only legally sound, but operationally informed.
