Alert risk levels

Riskline’s methodology follows best practices from internationally recognized risk management procedures and categorizes risk into five levels: Low, Moderate, Medium, High, and Extreme. Each risk level is characterized as follows:

Safety and Security

Travel Disruptions

Extreme

Extremely dangerous and presents unpredictable security risks

Chaotic; travel impossible

High

Can be dangerous and may present unexpected security risks

Travel is possible, but there is a potential for severe or widespread disruptions

Medium

Not completely safe, but typically presents predictable security risks

Travel is possible, but there is a potential for disruptions

Moderate

Generally safe, with some predictable security risks

Travel is possible with an expectation of routine disruptions and delays

Low

Safe, with very few risks

Travel is possible with an expectation of routine disruptions and delays

We have mapped Riskline’s default risk levels from five to three in the platform, according to the following structure:

Extreme
