Reference documentation and code samples for the Google Cloud Data Loss Prevention v2 API class CustomInfoType.Types.DetectionRule.Types.LikelihoodAdjustment.
Message for specifying an adjustment to the likelihood of a finding as
part of a detection rule.
Increase or decrease the likelihood by the specified number of
levels. For example, if a finding would be POSSIBLE without the
detection rule and relative_likelihood is 1, then it is upgraded to
LIKELY, while a value of -1 would downgrade it to UNLIKELY.
Likelihood may never drop below VERY_UNLIKELY or exceed
VERY_LIKELY, so applying an adjustment of 1 followed by an
adjustment of -1 when base likelihood is VERY_LIKELY will result in
a final likelihood of LIKELY.
