National Cybersecurity Trailblazer Joins Ice Miller

Veteran CISA Advisor First Woman to Develop and Implement Statewide Security Strategy

INDIANAPOLIS, July 14, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ice Miller is pleased to announce that Chetrice Mosley-Romero, a trailblazer in the cybersecurity space and a veteran Cybersecurity Advisor & State Coordinator for the Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), has joined the firm as a Senior Cybersecurity Advisor, positioned to add immediate value by helping clients strengthen their security practices through the development of high-caliber cybersecurity governance, risk and compliance initiatives, crisis management and incident response plans, and workforce training programs.

Mosley-Romero also broke barriers by serving as the first Cybersecurity Program Director for Indiana—the first woman nationally fully dedicated to developing and implementing a comprehensive cybersecurity strategy for an entire state. Experienced in both the public and private sectors, she possesses a panoramic understanding of the full cybersecurity ecosystem and has led response efforts for cyber incidents at the local, state, regional, and national levels.

"I'm excited to join Ice Miller and continue doing what I love—helping organizations build practical, resilient cybersecurity programs that actually work in a crisis," said Mosley-Romero. "Whether it's improving governance, responding to an incident, cybersecurity training, or navigating compliance challenges, I'm here to help wherever an organization is in their cybersecurity journey."

In this newly created position, Mosley-Romero advises organizations on how to enhance their cybersecurity posture, navigate state and federal regulatory challenges, and build resilient infrastructures.

"We're thrilled to have Chetrice join our firm's cybersecurity practice," said Sid Bose, partner and chair of Ice Miller's Tech, Privacy & Cyber Risk Practice. "Chetrice's impressive background and leadership on the cybersecurity front uniquely positions Ice Miller to help clients build a stronger and more resilient cybersecurity program, while also addressing the key legal and regulatory challenges they face. Her experience navigating institutional challenges, crisis management, and rapid response will prove invaluable to clients."

Mosley-Romero also brings valuable regulatory experience, working closely with legal teams and widely respected for her ability to align strategic initiatives with legal processes. Her understanding of regulatory constraints and her collaborative approach to cross-disciplinary work have helped develop strong in-roads with critical agencies and partners in the cybersecurity space. Mosley-Romero has deep experience in policy development and implementation that helps empower organizations to stay ahead of evolving compliance requirements, while ensuring robust security measures are in place. In her new role at Ice Miller, she will work closely with the firm's cyber risk practice to help clients design and implement cybersecurity programs that are strategic, scalable, cost-effective, and aligned with the client's business and regulatory cyber needs.

"In sports parlance, Chetrice is the quintessential multi-tool player," stated Ice Miller partner and former federal law enforcement agent Jim Watson. "Her wealth of experience in the data security arena allows her to navigate both macro and micro challenges, and encompasses national and hyper-localized cybersecurity scenarios, actions, and incidents. Her differentiating mix of leadership, regulatory insight, boots-on-the-ground response proficiency, and prevention acumen will make an immediate impact at Ice Miller and for a broad array of the firm's clients."

In addition to her work, Mosley-Romero frequently interacts with the community at large, delivering presentations, webinars, educational seminars, keynote addresses, and panel discussions on cybersecurity best practices, threat landscapes, cyber hygiene education, and awareness campaigns to non-technical and executive audiences, and will continue to do so at Ice Miller.
