The Architect of Forensic Defensibility

The Genesis of Forensic Defensibility

Confidential Risk Consulting (CRC) was founded to address a systemic failure in the risk industry: the Documentation Void. Traditional risk management relies on "Security Theater"—visible controls that offer no legal protection.

In a 2026 judicial and regulatory landscape, "best efforts" are no longer a defense. CRC provides the quantified proof of a Defensible Position, moving organizations from Forensic Fragility to the Gold Standard.

The Principal Analyst: A Pedigree of Systemic Triage

Richard G. Prouse’s methodology is the synthesis of two decades spent identifying critical failure points in high-variance environments. He views risk as a mechanical system that must be audited with surgical precision.

• Operational Precision: During a 12-year tenure with the New Zealand Defence Force (NZDF), Richard refined the principles of Systemic Triage. Serving on international missions, he mastered the ability to document and stabilize complex systems under extreme pressure—a skill set now applied to boardroom liability.

• Global Governance: As a Red Cross Delegate, Richard navigated the intersection of geopolitical instability and medical governance. This environment served as the "laboratory" for the Prouse Forensic Index (PFI), transforming the vague concept of "Duty of Care" into a measurable, audited metric.

The Science of Residual Liability (Lr)

Richard’s unique contribution to the industry is the Prouse Residual Liability Model. This mathematical framework was designed to expose the gap between physical investment and actual legal immunity.

By focusing on the Documentation Coefficient (Cd), Richard ensures that a client's physical controls (Ce) are never nullified by an evidentiary void. This model is now the governing principle for all CRC engagements across Institutional, Digital, and Private sectors.

The Standard: Global Alignment

Richard G. Prouse operates at the highest tier of international risk standards. His work is not based on "opinion" but on the rigorous application of:

• ISO 31000:2018 (Risk Management Guidelines)

• ISO 19011:2018 (Guidelines for Auditing Management Systems)

• The PFI Benchmark (0–100 Defensibility Scoring)

The Commitment

Based in New Zealand and operating globally, Richard G. Prouse provides fiduciaries, CMOs, and HNW individuals with the Forensic Weight required to defend their capital, their brand, and their legacy.

"In the modern era, you are not judged by the locks on your doors, but by the integrity of the data that proves they were locked." — Richard G. Prouse

"Before the Sentinel Audit, our digital ad spend was a black box. CRC’s use of Linguistic Entropy provided the forensic proof we needed to verify human engagement and purge synthetic fraud from our funnel. They didn't just save us money; they secured our brand integrity."
