A simplified PROGRESS demo of a critical sector: four Dimensions of Operation, their interdependencies, and how a single concentrated failure cascades — recovered slowly by failover, or fast by a CERT.

Disclaimer
This is a simplified demo of the PROGRESS approach. A real critical sector depends on hundreds of shared technology providers; here we show only the one that matters for a single service, so the picture stays readable. Not a real sector. PROGRESS AI extensions are research in progress.

A supply-chain attack hits a shared provider and cascades through four operators. First without a CERT (slow failover recovery), then with a CERT (fast isolation and repair). Generic sector; no country claims.
