The Record

The work is public.

Hostile Solutions does not ask you to accept expertise on reputation alone. The underlying research, working papers, quantitative analysis, forensic examinations and corrections are published openly.

The commercial practice is the application. The public record is the evidence.

The Architecture

Two sites. One evidential record.

Hostile Solutions is the forensic practice. paulfaulkner.com is the public research record behind it. The distinction keeps the commercial engagement separate from the work that allows the practitioner to be examined independently.

Hostile Solutions

The practice

Forensic intelligence, AI assurance, controlled AI delivery, quantitative analysis and reconstruction of complex financial and analytical systems.

paulfaulkner.com

The public record

Published research, books, working papers, datasets, analytical frameworks and corrections. The place to inspect the underlying work.

Don’t take the claim on trust. Examine the record.

The Library

Long-form work that built the practice.

The research record includes books, frameworks and intelligence products that examine analytical claims at greater depth than a conventional consultancy paper allows.

Independence
No product to sell.
No model to defend.
No narrative to preserve.
Public record · Open inspection

The purpose of publishing the research independently is straightforward: the work should remain examinable whether or not someone becomes a client.

A commercial engagement should therefore be able to point backwards into an existing record of research rather than relying on an assertion of expertise made on the same page that sells the service.

That is why the public research record sits outside the Hostile Solutions sales process.
