Duplicating a shared risk policy in an application

To duplicate a shared risk policy in an application

NOTE: When duplicated, shared risk policies create non-shared risk policies. After being duplicated, the new non-shared risk policy is only available for the current application and is managed using the Application wizard.

  2. Click the button to open the Edit Application dialog.
  3. In the Policies section, select the shared risk policy to duplicate and click the button to open the Add Policy dialog populated with the conditions and scores assigned in the original shared risk policy.
  4. In the Policy Name field, enter a name for the new non-shared risk policy.
  5. After editing the duplicate risk policy, click the Accept button to return to the Edit Application dialog.
  6. The duplicated risk policy now appears in the Policies section. Click Save to return to the Applications page.

Deleting a shared risk policy from an application

To delete a shared risk policy from an application

IMPORTANT: The Security Analytics Engine is not aware of applications’ usage of risk policies. Before deleting a shared risk policy, ensure that the application is not sending requests to evaluate the shared risk policy that is to be deleted.

NOTE: Deleting a shared risk policy from an application does NOT delete the shared risk policy from use in all applications. To permanently delete a shared risk policy you must use the Shared Policies page. See To delete a shared risk policy for more information.
  1. On the Applications page, select the application currently using the shared risk policy.
  2. Click the button to open the Edit Application dialog.
  3. In the Policies section, select the shared risk policy to delete and click the button.
  4. A dialog is displayed confirming that you want to delete the selected shared risk policy. Click the Delete button.
  5. The deleted shared risk policy no longer appears listed in the Policies section of the Edit Application dialog, but is still available for use in all applications. Click Save to return to the Applications page.

Click this link to open the Using the Policy Editor dialog which provides a brief overview of how to use the Policy Editor. Click Close to close the dialog.

Click this button to open the Select conditions to monitor dialog.

Click this button to preview the risk policy. Once preview mode is active, select any of the check boxes to the left of a condition or modifier name to preview the risk score that would occur should the selected items be triggered during an access attempt. The Risk Score field displays the risk score that would occur if all the selected conditions and modifiers were triggered.

Alerting section - This section of the wizard allows you to configure alerting for the risk policy. Click the Alerting heading on the left-hand side of the dialog to display the available settings.

IMPORTANT: When multiple, identical alerts for the same risk policy occur within a 5-minute period, the Security Analytics Engine will only send 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.

Notify Admin

Select the check box to begin sending email alerts and in the field enter the email address of the person that will be receiving the alerts.

Notify User

Select the check box to send an email alert to the user attempting access when they exceed a certain score.

If Notify User is selected, click this button to open the Customize User Alert Email dialog which is used for customizing the subject and descriptive body text of the alert email sent to the user. Once edits are made, click Accept to close the dialog.

Alert When

Select one of the following options:

  • Always - Send alerts when a risk policy is evaluated by the application and when the application updates user behavior data.
  • Only when specified - Sends an alert when the risk policy used for evaluation generates a risk score for the application.

Scores <nn> Or More

In this field enter the minimum risk score (1 to 100) a user must receive in order for an alert to be sent.

The following appear based on the selections made on the Select conditions to monitor dialog. For each category, a slider bar appears for each of the conditions and moves from left to right to increase the condition score in increments of 10 between 0%-100%. A condition set to 0% will not affect the risk score when triggered and a condition set to 100% will cause the highest possible risk score when triggered.
