As famously articulated by [[Donald Rumsfeld]], something that you ''know'' that you know. It is ''also'' known as “the stable from which your horse has bolted”, which your [[risk]] and [[legal]] and management teams will accordingly obsess about, until the last guy who was there when the horse bolted has finally retired. Whereupon the [[paradigm]] will reset and the known known will be demoted to an [[unknown known|''unknown'' known]], if your organisation has a grip on history, or an [[unknown unknown|unknown ''unknown'']], if it doesn’t.
