What the work pays, and what AI is taking.

Cybersecurity and data breach response lawyers advise companies during and after security incidents — managing mandatory breach notification obligations, coordinating with regulators, and assessing legal liability exposure. This is genuinely time-critical legal work, since breach notification deadlines and reputational damage control both demand fast, decisive legal guidance. Kenya's Data Protection Act includes breach notification obligations, and as enforcement matures and cyber incidents at Kenyan companies become more visible, this has become a genuine, distinct legal specialisation rather than a general litigation matter.
