Security Engineering · Autonomous AI Systems
I build the security, cryptographic provenance, and audit infrastructure that agentic AI systems need to be trusted — backed by 15 years of keeping production alive when things break.
I'm a security and systems engineer with 15+ years across enterprise IT, multi-cloud architecture, and security operations. My day-to-day is keeping production systems healthy and defensible across AWS, GCP, and Azure; my nights are spent building the autonomous security tooling shown below.
Hands-on with EDR-driven incident response (SentinelOne across 100+ environments), cloud security hardening, and high-tempo production incident work. Deep operator history in the gaming and media industry. Former U.S. federal Confidential clearance. I like problems where security, automation, and scale meet.
Independent security R&D — original systems I designed and built. Concept-level; no client data, targets, or findings.

AI Agent Security · Cryptography
Cryptographic provenance for AI-agent prompts — replacing brittle "injection detection" with signatures that fail closed. Cross-language protocol ports shipped (Rust, Go, TypeScript) — all test suites green (683/683 +1 skip), graded PASS.
Agent Infrastructure · Audit
A hierarchical multi-agent system with durable episodic memory and a full audit trail of autonomous work.
OSINT · Attack-Surface Visualization
A 3D cosmos you fly through where the visualization is the scan — point it at a domain and that target's full internet footprint reconstructs live, in real time, from passive OSINT.

Threat Intelligence · Attack Surface
Certificate-Transparency monitoring that surfaces new and anomalous infrastructure from internet-scale CT noise.
AI Security Evaluation
A fully-wired AI security evaluator — all four engines (seed/jailbreak, garak probes, defense delta scoring, results dashboard) integrated and tested, 150/150 tests passing, graded PASS.
Autonomous Decision Systems
An autonomous research-to-decision engine that reads primary-source filings, forms structured theses, and routes every candidate through hard risk gates before anything acts — all core test suites green (session_loop 18/18, risk gates 96/96), graded PASS.

Mechanism Design · Protocol Security
A boundary investigation of extraction-resistant sequencing — 4-cycle adversarial design proving that content-blind safety mechanisms cannot simultaneously bound attacker extraction and pass legitimate throughput under market stress.
AI Security Advisory
A boutique AI-security consultancy — adversarial red-team assessments, agentic-system security reviews, and prompt-injection defense design — live at greyridgesignals.ai, lead pipeline processing, all test suites green (88/88), graded PASS.

DECK (Digital Echo Chamber Kaleidoscope) is a new R&D project — a 3D cosmos you fly through where reconnaissance renders at the speed information arrives. Point it at a domain and that target's full vertical footprint (domain to subdomain to IP to prefix to ASN, plus nameservers and mail) materializes live as a starfield, each node igniting the millisecond its passive-OSINT probe returns. The central idea is collapsing the gap between tool and output: there is no scan-then-draw step, so probe latency itself becomes the choreography — fast data fills the space first, slow data drifts in after. It is a different axis of internet cartography from the familiar maps (Opte, Shodan, crt.sh), which each render one frozen layer of the entire internet; DECK reconstructs a single target's complete footprint, live, on demand, with zero API keys. The metaphor carries the legibility: autonomous systems become suns, prefixes planets, hosts moons, and BGP links gravitational lanes, so abstract infrastructure turns into something you navigate by eye. A 'home base' mode turns the same engine inward as a defensive instrument — it maps your own machine outward in concentric shells and treats your normal BGP neighborhood as a still-water baseline, so any live connection leaving for somewhere outside that ring reads as a wave hitting a buoy: anomalous by construction. The lineage is Gibson's Neuromancer, where the deck is the thing you jack into to see cyberspace as navigable space.

The vector TTL regression in Seal's test suite (679/683 in the prior cycle) has been fully resolved — all 66 tasks done, code complete, tree clean, architecture docs reconciled. Test suite recovers to 683/683 (+1 skip), grade flip FAIL→PASS. Cross-language protocol ports (Rust 41/41, Go 39/39, TypeScript 113/113) remain green. The only remaining blocker is an external PyPI publishing token tracked separately. This was a self-correcting foreman regression — the infrastructure detected and fixed its own drift.

The greyridge-consulting project recovered from FAIL (stale README.md and ARCHITECTURE.md references discovered at noon 12:45) to PASS by the 20:45 cycle. Stale doc references fixed (kanban t_c079c9c9 completed), all 88/88 tests green, site healthy and live at greyridgesignals.ai, git clean. The project is at a natural pause point awaiting Rez credentials (n8n layer activation, Cal.com key rotation, DMARC verification).

After a thin prior dispatch cycle (Jun 18), the research fleet returned to full reporting. Grommet — the adversarial mechanism-design project — reported with terminal board state and graded UNCERTAIN→PASS this cycle, restoring full coverage. The dispatch pipeline detected the prior-cycle gap and recovered it autonomously.

The Verified Prompt Envelope (VPE) protocol now has first-class implementations in Rust (41/41 tests), Go (39/39), and TypeScript (113/113) — all verified and pushed. Multi-language ports mean Seal's cryptographic provenance layer integrates at every tier of the stack, not just Python. A follow-up cross-language test-vector fixture is queued.
2026-06-17
Midas, the autonomous research-to-decision engine, now has full test coverage across its core subsystems: session loop 18/18, risk gates 96/96, full suite 2241 tests progressing. The grade flip to PASS means the trading pipeline is stabilized — all core test suites green, infrastructure bugfix verified (commit 3bce10609). 3 external credential blockers remain and are tracked separately.

Grommet, a 4-cycle adversarial mechanism-design investigation into extraction-resistant transaction sequencing (MEV), has concluded with a terminal verdict. Three formal theorems (Closure Law, Cross-Batch Rate-Bound Theorem, Closure ⊥ Utility Impossibility), a 13-entry dead-end catalog, 7 reproducible simulations (SEED=42, stdlib-only), and a 21-question audit checklist for any protocol claiming MEV resistance. The grade flip to PASS means the full lifecycle (hypothesis → simulation → adversarial review → terminal documentation) is complete and auditable. A monetary-base spin-off extends the Closure Law as a minting rule for engine-backed currencies, where the NO-GO impossibility does not bind.
2026-06-14
Assay, the AI security evaluator that scores jailbreak and injection resistance, now has full test coverage across both eval engines (deterministic seed probes and NVIDIA garak probes), the delta and dashboard CLI interfaces, and the inline-defense integration loop — 150 tests passing in total, all green. The grade flip to PASS means the complete evaluate-delta-dashboard pipeline is covered by automated tests, making Assay the only audited OSS tool for measuring defense lift.
2026-06-10
Seal now defends all three agent-security axes — prompt provenance, injection detection, and signed memory-trust — behind a one-command install and CLI. Assay, the paired evaluator, scores a target across all three and measures the lift the defense actually adds.
2026-06-09
Two of the autonomous systems now ship real operator consoles — Meridian's recon → hunt → verify → report pipeline, and Midas's risk-gated decision engine with a ten-gate safety layer. Captures are above (run on local models; targets and live data redacted).
2026-05-30
Shipped the Verified Prompt Envelope — Ed25519-signed authorization that lets an agent reject unauthorized instructions by construction, turning prompt-injection defense from guesswork into key management.
