-| High                                | Challenges all visitors that exhibited threatening behavior within the last 14 days. |
 | I'm Under Attack!                   | Only for use if your website is currently under a DDoS attack.                       |
 
-Selecting a higher **Security Level** value means that even requests with a lower risk (that is, with a low [threat score](#threat-score)) will be challenged. Selecting a lower **Security Level** value means that only requests posing a higher risk (that is, with a high threat score) will be challenged.

-Security levels from _Essentially off_ to _High_ will challenge the visitor using a Managed Challenge. When you select _I'm Under Attack!_, which enables [Under Attack mode](/fundamentals/reference/under-attack-mode/), Cloudflare will present a JS challenge page.
