About Christopher Patrick Kuntz

I analyze how architecture, incentives, and authorization boundaries interact in complex systems. A central theme in my work is lawful instability: failure modes that emerge when rational actors optimize systems using permitted behavior. My wider portfolio also includes infrastructure investigations, application security, and post-incident forensics.

Background

• 10 years analyzing complex logistic systems and incentive structures at Canadian Pacific Railway, 2010–2020.
• Independent security research since 2020.
• Published forensic analyses, infrastructure investigations, and analytical frameworks for agentic systems.

I conduct the analysis directly and draw on the methods and limitations documented in my public research.

Independent Analysis

I provide independent analysis without selling implementation services or remediation products as part of the engagement. Engagement fees pay for analysis and review. I document risks, evidence, and uncertainty, and assess proposed fixes. Your team decides how to address the findings.

Active research areas

• Lawful instability in agentic systems.
• Conservation-based security invariants.
• Post-incident forensic reconstruction.
