# Risk Level

### Risk Level <a href="#risk_level" id="risk_level"></a>

The **Risk Level** (RL) is a quantitative metric that assesses the current **exposure** to software supply chain attacks. It evaluates the ***security posture*** of the DevOps system based on scans conducted by the Xygeni platform.

In the [Dashboard](/introduction-to-xygeni/xygeni-web-ui-overview.md#xygeni-web-ui), the **Risk Level** is displayed alongside its variation in relation to the current baseline of projects.

The Risk Level is quantified on a scale from 0 to 100, with 100 indicating the highest level of risk. This measure is determined by the issues identified within a project. If no issues are detected, the Risk Level is rated as 0.

The RL is qualified in three categories that make more evident how good or bad is the risk for the organization. Each category is encoded with a color following the "semaphore" scheme:

* **Low**: RL between 0 and 33, green color.
* **Moderate**: RL between 33 and 66, yellow color.
* **High**: RL between 66 and 100, blood-red color.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.xygeni.io/introduction-to-xygeni/key-concepts/risk-level.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
