The Cyber Incident Severity Schema ranges from white (an “unsubstantiated or inconsequential event”) to black (a hack that “poses an imminent threat to the provision of wide-scale critical infrastructure services, national government stability, or to the lives of U.S. persons”), with green, yellow, orange, and red falling in between. Any hack or threat of a hack rated at orange or above is a “significant cyber incident” that will trigger what the Obama administration is calling a “coordinated” response from government agencies.
