It means risk, depending on the context. If it is just this expression, it is another word for risk.

There is a difference here. The word plunge means several things, and can change depending on the context of the situation. The word itself means to "forcefully go into something". Usually the context is with water, but can be anything.
An example would be "He plunged into the ocean" In this context it means he jumped or excitedly went INTO the water.
However, as stated above it can be anything. "I plunged the book into my backpack"
This just means that I forcefully or quickly or with energy pushed the book into the backpack.
Plunge ALWAYS means INTO something.
The phrase "I decided to take the plunge" sometimes heard as "I took the plunge" is a turn of phrase that means that someone has decided to metaphorically go into something. It is used in this context to show that the person is a bit nervous about doing it. "I took the plunge and quit my job" "He took the plunge and decided to start playing baseball"
It simply means in this phrase that someone decided to go INTO some activity despite being nervous about it.
