Bettina Sterner

Bettina Sterner, BA BA works across Data Protection, IT security, and AI governance — as practitioner, trainer, and author — always at the fault line most compliance work tries to ignore: The gap between what the law demands on paper and what organizations can actually build, run, and defend in practice. She teaches ISO/IEC 27701 and ISO/IEC 42001, speaks and trains on NIS2, DORA, and AI Act governance, and approaches the EU AI Act not as a legal abstraction but as an operational problem.

She writes an ongoing whitepaper series on current questions in Data Protection, Security, and AI regulation - always with a hands-on approach geared toward practical implementation — published at kaffeekipferl.at. Her work runs across the AI Act, GDPR, NIS2, DORA and related - international - frameworks, targeting the seams where these frameworks don't interlock - and what that means for anyone trying to comply with all four at once.
