Severity & Status Colors

What each severity color means across Incidents, EDR, UEBA, Red Team, Dark Web, and every other module that ranks findings by risk.

The color scheme

Overview

Severity Color Scheme

Every module that ranks findings by risk — Incidents, EDR Agents, UEBA, Red Team CVEs, Dark Web findings, Threat Hunt Console, DDoS Detection, Attack Narrative, Attack Surface — uses the same five colors, so severity reads consistently no matter which screen you're on:

SeverityColorMeaning
CriticalRedNeeds immediate attention — the only severity that gets a "danger" color
HighOrangeSignificant risk, should be worked next
MediumAmberWorth reviewing, not urgent
LowMint (brand accent)Minor, still worth logging
Info / SuccessSlate grayInformational, or a clean/resolved result

Why this matters

Color is the fastest signal an analyst reads when triaging a list of alerts, incidents, or CVEs — a Critical finding should never look the same as a Medium one. If you see two different severities rendering in the same color anywhere in the product, that's a bug — please report it via Support Center → Reporting an issue.

Risk-score bands (EDR, UEBA, Threat Intel confidence)

Where a module shows a 0–100 risk or confidence score instead of a named severity, the same colors apply by threshold:

  • 80–100 → red (Critical)
  • 60–79 → orange (High)
  • 40–59 → amber (Medium)
  • 0–39 → mint (Low / good)
