Risk Model

Prev Next

Risk Model itself is now deprecated, however you can still use the risk scores for access control.

Risk based access is a way to set up access controls based on a user risk score (provided as a claim) which in turn will decide if the Action(s) specified in the Entitlement are to be allowed. For example: access may only be allowed if the user risk score is medium or low. When the risk score is high then the Entitlement will be denied (block rule applies). If a user interaction has been configured in the risk matrix, this will provide a way for the user to unblock access by performing some sort of additional authentication.

Before you start

Pre-configure the following elements:

Background information:

Use the Risk Model form for:

  • Defining the risk matrix which can then be used for controlling when Entitlements will be allowed by the Gateway

  • Adding user interactions when the risk matrix shows USER ACTION, such as entering a valid multi-factor authentication.

  • Adding a message to provide feedback to the user when the risk matrix shows DENY.
