Carolin Desirée Toepfer

Hi, I'm Carolin. As an external Chief Information Security Officer, I have successfully supported several large, regulated companies on their journey toward a higher level of cybersecurity, secure AI usage, and achieving CyberTrust or ISO certification.

In addition, I am a member of various EU NIS2, DORA, CRA working groups, collaborating with legal experts, representatives of other highly regulated organizations, and the relevant authorities. I am known for efficient workflows, precise documentation, and rigorous yet fair supplier assessments that enable my clients to innovate on a secure foundation.

As an entrepreneur and cybersecurity strategist, I understand the procurement requirements of highly regulated companies and public authorities in the European market. I translate these requirements cost-efficiently into cybersecurity measures that protect companies and products while also helping to win new clients.
