Bayesian Threat Board?How this worksEvery tracked threat has a current probability that moves with evidence. Each dispatch we ingest is scored against every threat; if it raises or lowers the odds of that threat materializing, it nudges the probability via Bayesian update (prior + evidence → posterior).
Confidence intervals tighten as evidence count grows. Not forecasting — continuous re-weighting of a claim against all available reporting.

Methodology
Each tracked threat begins with a prior probability based on historical base rates and expert elicitation. New evidence — every dispatch scored against the threat — nudges that probability up or down. Bayesian posterior updates compound; confidence intervals tighten as evidence accumulates.
