🚨 Minor Incident $7.9M/yr
12.0% probability / year +$200K vs baseline
Localized containment activation or single cell activation requiring rapid response, forensic scene work and targeted legal/cover actions.
single cell activation forensic response targeted local cover-up
🚨 Major Breach $12.7M/yr
3.0% probability / year +$5.0M vs baseline
Significant containment failure or release (SCP-567-9 event or multiple activations) requiring large-scale containment operations, major repairs, broad legal settlements and use of contingency funds.

📋 Confidence Notes
Estimates derived from analyst-provided ranges; many line items have wide ranges (property, contingency, legal, per-incident costs). Personnel-based recurring items are better defined; per-incident and reserve sizing introduce uncertainty, hence medium confidence.
