SCP Classifications Overview

Study Notes

SCP Classifications

Safe: Anomalies that are easily contained with minimal resources; handling may still pose a threat despite the classification.
Euclid: Requires more resources for containment and is less predictable; often applies to autonomous or sentient SCPs due to their unpredictable nature.
Keter: Extremely difficult to contain; high complexity in procedures; not necessarily dangerous but costly or challenging to manage.
Thaumiel: Used by the Foundation to contain or counteract other SCPs; their functions are highly classified and known only to a select few.
Apollyon: An SCP akin to "The Angel of Death," which is nearly impossible to contain and poses a significant threat to human life.
Neutralized: Anomalies that have lost their properties due to destruction or disabling.
Explained: Anomalies fully understood by mainstream science, no longer considered anomalous.
Maksur: Broken or damaged SCPs, exemplified by "The Broken God."
53: An SCP with no known information, deemed not dangerous; connected to Scantron’s Proposal SCP-001.

Security Clearance Levels

Level 0 (For Official Use Only): Granted to non-essential personnel without access to sensitive information; typically includes clerical and janitorial staff.
Level 1 (Confidential): For personnel near containment but without access to anomalies; usually clerical, logistics, or janitorial staff handling sensitive information.
Level 2 (Restricted): Granted to security and research staff needing access to anomaly data; includes most researchers and containment specialists.
Level 3 (Secret): For senior staff that require detailed information regarding anomalies; includes senior researchers and Mobile Task Force operatives.
Level 4 (Top Secret): Access for high-ranking administrative personnel needing site-wide intelligence; typically held by Site and Security Directors.
Level 5 (Thaumiel): Highest clearance for top administrative officials; grants unlimited access to strategic and sensitive data.

Personnel Classes

Class A: Essential personnel prohibited from direct anomaly access; must be evacuated to secure areas during emergencies.
Class B: Personnel involved in local operations, granted access to cleared anomalies; must evacuate during breaches.
Class C: Personnel with access to most non-hostile anomalies; potential for mandatory quarantine if exposed to certain properties.
Class D: Expendable personnel for handling hazardous anomalies; typically sourced from prisoners and subjected to strict evaluations and termination protocols.
Class E: Provisional classification for field agents exposed to dangers during containment efforts; requires quarantine and medical clearance before returning to duty.

O5 Council

Comprises the highest-ranking directors with complete access to containment information; directs Foundation operations worldwide.
Identities of members are classified; they are referred to only by numeric designations (O5-1 through O5-13).
Must avoid direct contact with anomalous entities due to the sensitivity of their positions.
