Deleting an application
After an application is added, it appears on the Applications page where it can be deleted.
To delete an application
- On the Applications page, select the application to delete.
- Click the
button to delete the application.
- A dialog is displayed confirming that you want to remove the application and its associated risk policies from the Security Analytics Engine. Click the Delete button.
Adding and managing risk policies
After an application had been added, it appears on the Applications page with the associated risk policies listed in the Policies column. It is the responsibility of the client application to determine which risk policy to evaluate during access attempts, however all risk policies with alerting enabled will automatically send alerts once they are configured for the application. For more information on using risk policies for evaluating and alerting, see Risk policies.
See the following sections for more information:
Adding a new risk policy
To add a new risk policy
- On the Applications page, select the application which will use the new risk policy.
- Click the
button to open the Edit Application dialog.
- The Policies section of the Edit Application dialog is used for adding and managing the risk policies assigned to the application. To add a new risk policy, click the
button to open the Add Policy dialog.
- In the Policy Name field, enter a unique name for the risk policy.
- (Optional) In the Description field, enter a description for the risk policy.
- (Optional) Select the Disable Policy Override check box to disable overrides for this risk policy.
- (Optional) Use the Alerting section of this dialog to set up email alerts for this risk policy. Click Alerting to display the following settings:
![](/fr-fr/technical-documents/image/4de7d2da-bd05-4360-8034-f80faf7bcb1b)
|
IMPORTANT: When multiple, identical alerts for the same risk policy occur within a 5-minute period, the Security Analytics Engine only sends one alert. If alerting is used in risk policies with multiple conditions, you may want to assign different scores for each condition since there is a chance that a user may attempt access twice in that 5-minute window and trigger different conditions yet still cause the same score. |
- Click the
button in the upper right corner to open the Select conditions to monitor dialog.
- Select the check box to the left of a condition name to add that condition to the risk policy. All selected conditions remain highlighted so you can track which conditions are being used in the risk policy.
-
Repeat Step 9 until you have selected all the conditions to apply to the risk policy.
Multiple conditions of the same type are allowed in a risk policy and are useful for adding levels of risk to a type of condition. For example, one Abnormal Browser condition can increase a risk score if the browser was unused for 15 days while a second Abnormal Browser condition can further increase the risk score if the browser was unused for 30 days. If a browser that has not been used in over 30 days is used for access, both will be triggered causing both assigned scores to be included in the risk score.
- Click the OK button to close the dialog.
-
The Edit Policy dialog displays the selected conditions according to category. Each condition has a slider associated with it that is used to assign a percentage to the condition. Assign each condition a percentage according to how much of a risk you consider a user that triggers each condition during an access attempt.
|
NOTE: Hovering over a condition displays a button. Clicking this button displays the condition’s description. |
- (Optional) Each condition can also be assigned modifiers. These modifiers are used to either increase or decrease the score of a triggered condition in cases when a modifier is also triggered. This allows you to control how a single condition is calculated without lessening or intensifying the effect of another condition which should not be impacted by those same, or possibly any, modifiers. The following steps are required for adding a modifier to a condition:
- Locate the condition which is to be assigned a modifier.
- Select the
button located to the left of the condition name to open the Select condition modifiers dialog.
- On the Select condition modifiers dialog, select the check box located to the left of a condition name to add that condition as a modifier of the original condition. All selected conditions remain highlighted so you can track which conditions are being used as modifiers of the original condition.
- Click OK to close the dialog.
- Each modifier will now appear listed beneath the original condition with a scroll bar set at 100%. Move the slider in increments of ten to set the impact each modifier will have on the condition score. Depending on how each modifier was configured on the Conditions page (Can increase risk, Can decrease risk, or Can both increase or decrease risk), the following settings are available:
- 0% - A modifier set to this percentage automatically cause the condition score to be 0% regardless of any other modifiers triggered. (Can decrease risk or Can both increase or decrease risk)
- 10%-90% - A modifier set between these two percentages decreases the condition score when triggered. (Can decrease risk or Can both increase or decrease risk)
- 100% - A modifier set to this percentage will not affect the condition when triggered. (Can decrease risk, Can increase risk, or Can both increase or decrease risk)
- 110%-200% - A modifier set between these two percentages increases the condition score when triggered. (Can increase risk or Can both increase or decrease risk)
- (Optional) To preview possible risk scores that can occur for the risk policy, click the
button in the upper right corner of the dialog to enable Preview Mode. Edits to the risk policy are allowed while preview mode is active.
- Select the check boxes to the left of any conditions or modifiers to preview the risk score that occurs if they are triggered during an access attempt. The Risk Score field at the top of the dialog updates as selections are made.
- Click the
button to close preview mode.
- Once each condition and modifier has been assigned a percentage, click Accept to approve the risk policy and return to the Edit Application dialog.
- Click the Save button on the Edit Application dialog to save the application and return to the Applications page.
Duplicating a risk policy
After a risk policy is added to an application, it appears listed on the Applications page and can now be duplicated.
To duplicate a risk policy
- On the Applications page, select the application currently using the risk policy you want duplicated.
- Click the
button to open the Edit Application dialog.
- In the Policies section, select a risk policy to duplicate and click the
button to open the Add Policy dialog populated with the conditions and scores assigned in the original risk policy.
- In the Policy Name field, enter a name for the risk policy.
- After editing the duplicate risk policy, click the Accept button to return to the Edit Application dialog.
- The duplicated risk policy now appears in the Policies section. Click Save to return to the Applications page.
