As first written
preventification
Stands today exactly as it was first set down.

The condition of an institution in which every process exists to prevent rather than to do; the risk register eating the whole job.

Three years of preventification and the department had prevented everything, including itself.

Etymologyprevent + -ification.

NotePrevention is not boring, it is invisible — successful prevention leaves no evidence. Public health calls the adjacent problem the prevention paradox.
