We’re pleased to invite you to an exclusive seminar tailored for cyber insurers and brokers: “Suing the Unknown: Injunctions as a Cyber Risk Response Tool”.
When a data breach occurs, is an injunction worth pursuing? What if the attacker is unknown? What is the purpose of such injunctions?
Join us for a practical, case-based session examining two of the most significant cyber injunction rulings in Australia: HWL Ebsworth Lawyers v Persons Unknown (2023) and University of Notre Dame v Persons Unknown (2025).
Chaired by Simone Herbert-Lowe, Cyber Partner at Clyde & Co, the session will be led by Tamir Maltz, barrister and counsel in both the HWL Ebsworth and Notre Dame cyber injunction cases.
We’ll explore:
Whether (and when) to seek an injunction during a data breach
How to pursue legal relief against “persons unknown”
The real-world implications for claims and risk management
The trade-offs to be considered when deciding to purse or decline to pursue such injunctions
Sydney-based insurers, brokers and cyber claims professionals are welcome to join us in-person from 12:30pm in our Clyde & Co Sydney Office. Lunch and refreshments will be provided after the session. This session will also be held online for those who cannot attend in person.
