Explanation
The risk matrix heat map is a graphical tool that displays the probability and impact of risks in a project. The horizontal axis represents the probability of occurrence, and the vertical axis represents the impact rating. The colors indicate the level of risk exposure, from green (low) to red (high). The risk in question is located in the upper right quadrant of the matrix, which means it has a high impact rating. The probability of occurrence can be estimated by looking at the scale on the horizontal axis. The risk is slightly to the left of the 50% mark, which means it has a probability of occurrence of about 40%.
