Maximum Severity corresponds to the maximum severity rating of the security bulletin issued by Microsoft. For a given security bulletin, there may be several affected products each having a different severity rating. The maximum severity represents the severity associated with the affected product having the highest level of severity within the bulletin. This value allows administrators to better prioritize update risk and deployment urgency.
