TELOS Framework
Problems I'm working to solve and missions I'm pursuing.
Problems
What I'm working to solve.
Expertise has the same velocity problem as data
what people know doesn't flow to where it's needed
The right data doesn't reach the right people at the right time
actionable intelligence doesn't reach decision-makers fast enough
Technical-strategic thinkers lack organizational homes
the hacker-strategist doesn't fit existing roles
Defenders carry structural weight attackers don't
compliance, approvals, organizational friction
Timeliness in security discovery
significant delays from identification to protection
Missions
What I'm doing about it.
Encode domain expertise into systems that scale
turning tacit knowledge into tools others can use
Embody and define the hacker-strategist role
demonstrating where it lives and what it produces
Build systems that reduce defender friction
automation that handles drudgery so humans focus on judgment
Goals
Where I'm headed.
Encode expertise into systems
decision trees, heuristics, prompts that scale beyond me
Build purpose-built tools
clean outputs that eliminate data-wrangling friction
Clarify the hacker-strategist
publish work demonstrating the role and what it produces
Automate defender drudgery
free analysts for judgment, not process
"The pursuit itself is the purpose."
