. Each level, along with an example and the resulting output can be seen in the table below:

{{Security Warning |type=critical |This information is critical! }} |
🛡︎︎ Security information: This information is critical!

|
{{Security Warning |type=warning |This is your last warning! }} |
🛡︎︎ Security information: This is your last warning!
|

{{Security Warning |type=secure |All clear. }} |
🛡︎︎ Security information: All clear.
