Defense in Depth: Gate Chain & Survival Decay (2D)

Interactive 2D defense-in-depth simulator: watch attack packets race down a corridor of independent security gates and see the population-survival curve S(k) = (1-p)^k converge live against the theoretical exponential decay.

The 3D edition of this simulator renders defense-in-depth as nested spheres attacked from every direction in three dimensions. This 2D companion keeps the identical underlying probability model — independent layers, each blocking a fixed fraction of traffic, with breach probability P(breach) = (1 − p)^n — but represents it two ways at once on a flat canvas: a left-to-right corridor of gates that attack packets race through and get absorbed at (or slip past), and beneath it a live statistical chart plotting the theoretical population-survival curve S(k) = (1 − p)^k against the empirical survival fraction measured directly from the simulated packets. Watching the two curves lock together as attacks accumulate makes the exponential decay of defense-in-depth visible as a shape, not just a percentage.

⚙ Under the hood

A 2D companion to the concentric-sphere defense-in-depth model: attack packets race through a corridor of independent security gates while a live chart plots the theoretical survival curve S(k) = (1-p)^k against the empirical fraction of packets that actually cleared each gate.
