pi,di,ci,rip_i,d_i,c_i,r_i

Why this formula appears here

where pip_i,did_i,cic_i,rir_i are effective prevention, detection, containment, and recovery probabilities under a simplified independence assumption. The equation should not be used to manufacture precise risk numbers; controls are correlated and measurements sparse. It communicates why a single impressive guardrail cannot justify broad authority.
