What does an undetected failure actually cost?

A dark camera doesn't send an invoice. The cost turns up later — as the incident nobody can prove, the emergency call-out, the recorder that quietly took six weeks of footage with it. Put your numbers in and see the yearly exposure, then what continuous monitoring changes.

Indicative model, shared with the exposure tool: ~0.35 silent faults per device per year, rising with age; discovery in ~28 days unmonitored, ~7 days partial, ~15 min continuous. Unplanned-response premium assumed at $300 per fault (none), $150 (partial), $0 when faults are caught early and fixed on a plan. Missed footage assumes an incident needs one device at a random moment. Your real exposure depends on device mix, environment, and what an incident costs you.

The cheapest fault is the one you catch this week.

A Mallen health check tells you which devices are dark today, before any of these numbers come due. Continuous monitoring keeps the exposure at the bottom bar for good.
