# The Author
I'm **Casey Tunturi** — Fimeg in the community. Systems architect, 25+ years on the frontier: network engineering, security, and resurrecting dead datacenters from the ashes of ransomware strikes. Hamilton, Ontario.
## Why RedFlag is free
RedFlag is my resume piece. It will never be monetized: no pro tier, no cloud edition, no per-agent pricing. The update manager is part of your attack surface. Everyone deserves one that treats it that way, not just organizations with an RMM budget. The code is AGPL-3.0, the architecture is documented in the open, and that's the whole business model: there isn't one.
If you're evaluating whether I can build the thing you need built, this repository is the interview. Read the code, read the architecture docs, run it against your fleet.
## The RAF
The **RedFlag Architecture Framework** is the system's design of record, published alongside the code: how the trust model works, why the capability-token gate is shaped the way it is, the architectural decisions and the pitfalls we think are still out there. It is not a manual for attacking RedFlag — it's the reasoning behind it, so you can judge the security model yourself instead of trusting a README.
## Hire me
I build systems that organizations actually own: cryptographically secured, self-hosted, and auditable — free from the extortion of vendor lock-in. I am available for anyone whose genuine purpose is the betterment of humanity:
- **Full-Time Campaigns** — joining a team to build sovereign AI, high-trust infrastructure, or federated networks.
- **Consulting Expeditions ($175/hr)** — hands-on architecture, network engineering, and system hardening.
- **Incident Response ($250/hr)** — ransomware restoration, AD/DNS rebuilds, and pulling your servers back from the void.
- **Pro bono** — for causes I believe in. The condition: you ask honestly, and I get to choose.
