 | **Graph** | A general-purpose chart over any model and group-by dimension: bar, line, area, pie, or doughnut. E.g. Findings by Severity, Findings by Month. For findings, the **Measure** option charts unique CWEs or unique vulnerability IDs per group, such as unique CWEs by severity for one Asset. **Split By** draws one series per value of a second dimension, such as new findings per month by Severity Group (see [Graph options](#graph-options)). For a chart by month, filter its date with **Full Months** (for example Last 6 Full Months) so that every month on the chart is complete; see [date filters](/navigation/pro__filter_index/#how-date-filters-are-evaluated). |
 | **Sankey** | A flow diagram from a source dimension to a target dimension, for example Severity → Status. Severity, status and risk values take their own colors (the severity colors for severities), and each column lists its values in their own order. |
 | **Sunburst** | A one- or two-level radial breakdown, for example Severity, then Test Type within each severity. Severity, status and risk slices take their own colors; a slice of a dimension without colors (a test type) takes a muted shade of the slice it sits in. |
-| **Risk Matrix** | An EPSS-probability × risk heatmap of findings — bottom-left safe, top-right dangerous. |
+| **Risk Matrix** | An EPSS-probability × risk heatmap of findings. The hue marks the zone (bottom-left green is safe, top-right red is dangerous), and each cell's fill deepens in steps with its share of the findings in the matrix, so the cells where findings concentrate stand out. |
 | **Priority Histogram** | The distribution of finding **priority** scores from the prioritization engine, auto-binned. |
 | **Rate by Category** | A per-category ratio (numerator / denominator) — e.g. False-Positive Rate by Tool or Mitigation Rate by Asset. |
 | **Finding Velocity** | Findings created versus closed over time, showing whether the backlog is growing or shrinking. |
