Summary
Mark Ferraretto is a multidisciplinary practitioner combining three decades of IT and project leadership with a later-career pivot to law and academia. He progressed from Unix system administration and enterprise backup/portfolio management (including VP-level responsibility for JP Morgan's APAC DTS projects) to qualifying as a lawyer and teaching law and technology at Flinders University. As founder of the Digital Law Lab and now Principal of his own legal practice, he bridges technical, regulatory and commercial perspectives on digital infrastructure and data. Colleagues value his rare mix of hands-on systems experience, large-scale program delivery and practical legal insight, informed by a background in computer science and pure mathematics. An unexpected throughline in his career is a consistent focus on governance and auditability—whether consolidating Unix domains, standardising backup across regions, or teaching tech law.
