Kevin Riggle is a Principal with 17 years of experience applying systems safety and security principles to software and cyber risk management, currently leading Complex Systems Group to design systems that are safe by design rather than merely defended. He blends hands-on security engineering from roles at Akamai, Stripe, and Lyft with policy and infrastructure work—most recently contributing to RAND analyses of secure AI datacenters and regulatory responses to AI diffusion. Kevin is skilled at translating law and risk into engineering requirements, having led GDPR and CCPA implementations and built vendor, incident, and continuity programs. He also hosts the Critical Point War Stories podcast, surfacing operational lessons from real incidents to improve system resilience. Based in New York and MIT-trained in EECS, he focuses on preventing catastrophic outcomes by shaping architectures and organizational processes before failures occur.
