In other words, it’s an industry full of people who can’t identify signs of ransomware.

Barrister, The 36 Group

She was born in Romania, studied at Oxford University and was called to the Bar of England and Wales in 2005.

Flavia’s expertise focuses on cyber litigation, and the legal challenges arising out of the intersection of existing laws and rapidly advancing technology: cyber attacks including ransomware attacks, cyber surveillance, data breaches, disinformation, and deepfakes.

Flavia has developed experience in related regulatory issues emerging from new technologies, such as blockchain and distributed ledger technology (‘DLT’), and cryptoassets. A strong and passionate advocate, inside and outside court, she is often invited to speak on the topic.

In 2020 she addressed the BBC Technology and Development department on cyber attacks and integrity of content with particular relevance to journalists, and media organisations (regarding ransomware attacks and cyber surveillance).
