Family Field Description: Protection Level Slider

The following table provides an alphabetical list and description of the fields that exist in the Protection Level family and that are displayed on the baseline Protection Level Definition datasheet (unless otherwise noted). The information in the table reflects the baseline state and behavior of these fields.

This topic provides an alphabetical list and description of the fields that exist for the Protection Level family and appear on the Protection Level Definition datasheet. The information in the table reflects the baseline state and behavior of these fields.

Field	Data Type	Description	Behavior and Usage
Alias	Character	An alias for the protection level.	If the Alias Format Mask field in the associated Risk Matrix record contains the value {pl}, the value in the Alias field in the Protection Level record will be displayed in the cell in the Risk Matrix (according to the complete template that is defined in the Alias Format Mask field).
Description	Character	A description of the protection level.	This field is populated automatically based upon the value in the Name field. It is populated with the System Code in the MI_RISK_PROTECTION_LEVEL_DESC System Code Table, which contains the same ID as the System Code that is stored in the Name field. A Super User can modify the System Codes that are available via the Protection Level tab in the Risk Matrix record to which this Protection Level record is linked. When you pause on a level in the Protection Level Definition slider, this value appears to the right of the protection level name (separated by a colon). For example, if the name is 1 and the description is One, when you pause on that level in the slider, you will see the value 1:One.
Factor	Number	A number by which you want to multiply the currently selected risk value. For example, if the Factor is 10 and the value selected in the Environment section is 30, the total risk value for the Environment category would be 300 (10 x 30).	This number appears below the Protection Level slider in the Unmitigated cell or the Mitigated cell, depending upon whether you are defining the unmitigated risk (e.g., from a Risk in ASM) or mitigated risk (e.g., from an Action in ASM). After the Risk Matrix has been used by a module in GE Digital APM, this field is disabled, and you will not able to modify it.
Name	Character	The name of the protection level.	This field contains a list that is populated based upon the MI_RISK_PROTECTION_LEVEL System Code Table. A Super User can modify the System Codes that are available in this list via the Protection Level section in the Risk Matrix record to which this Protection Level record is linked. This value appears when you pause on a level in the Protection Level slider.
