Less than 0 Very Little Risk. You either don't have very much critical data on your computer, or your backup plan is probably adequate.
0-100 Slight. If you experience a non-catastrophic loss of data, you will probably be able to recover from it.
101-200 Moderate Risk. A loss of your data from your hard drive may not be recoverable. You are at a risk of losing your information
201-500 High Risk. Any major data loss would be catastrophic, and would probably not be recoverable. Your business is at risk.
Over 500 Extremely high risk. Your backup plan isn't protecting your data. This could cause a business failure in the event of a catastrophic data loss
