⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $4.2M/yr
80.0% probability / year
Normal operational year with routine investigations, a small number of incidents handled without major breaches or public exposure.
isolated incidents routine research and monitoring
🚨 Minor Incident $4.4M/yr
15.0% probability / year +$250K vs baseline
One or more isolated but significant incidents requiring extra medical care, forensic work, targeted amnestic deployments and additional PR/legal spending.
serious survivor injuries localized media attention
🚨 Major Breach $6.0M/yr
5.0% probability / year +$1.8M vs baseline
Containment breach or large public exposure requiring large contingency spending, expanded field operations, major legal/PR response and potential facility repairs.
public exposure catastrophic containment failure

📋 Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges allowing a reasoned estimate, but the anomalous and uncertain nature of SCP-2365 (frequency, memetic risk, and future R&D outcomes) leaves moderate uncertainty in final totals.
