Introduction
SCP stands for Secure, Contain, Protect. It is a fictional organization within the online collaborative writing project known as the SCP Foundation, which focuses on securing anomalous objects, entities, and phenomena to protect humanity from their potential dangers.
Secure
The first task of the SCP Foundation is to secure anomalous objects and entities to prevent them from causing harm or spreading their effects. This involves containment procedures that range from simple lock-and-key measures to complex containment chambers designed to withstand extreme conditions.
Contain
Once an anomalous object or entity is secured, it must be contained in a manner that prevents its effects from reaching the general population. This may involve isolating the object in a secure facility, studying its properties, and developing protocols to mitigate any potential risks.
Protect
The ultimate goal of the SCP Foundation is to protect humanity from the threats posed by anomalous objects and entities. This may involve neutralizing or neutralizing objects that pose a threat, developing technology to counteract their effects, or monitoring them to prevent any breaches of containment.
Examples
One of the most famous SCPs is SCP-173, a Euclid-class entity that appears to be a statue made of concrete and rebar. It is capable of moving at high speeds when not observed and will attack personnel if given the opportunity. SCP-682 is another well-known SCP, a Keter-class entity that resembles a large reptile with regenerative capabilities and extreme hostility.
Case Studies
In one case study, researchers at Site-██ discovered an anomalous object that caused those who touched it to experience intense feelings of paranoia and hallucinations. The SCP Foundation was able to secure the object and contain it in a specially designed chamber, effectively protecting personnel from its effects.
Statistics
As of the latest data, the SCP Foundation has contained over ████ anomalies, with ██% classified as Safe, ██% classified as Euclid, and ██% classified as Keter. The Foundation operates across multiple sites worldwide and employs thousands of personnel dedicated to securing, containing, and protecting anomalous objects and entities.
