Everyone with IT system authorization in a company represents a security risk for that company. For example, a person with permission to edit financial data in SAP carries a higher risk than an employee with permission to edit their own personal data. To quantify the risk, you can enter a risk value for every company resource in One Identity Manager. A risk index is calculated from this value for every person who is assigned this company resource, directly, or indirectly. Company resources include target system entitlements (for example, Active Directory groups or SAP profiles), system roles, subscribable reports, software, and resources. In this way, all the people that represent a particular risk to the company can be found.
In the context of Identity Audit, compliance rules can also be given a risk index. Each rule violation can increase the security risk. Therefore, these risk indexes are also included in the employee’s risk calculation. You can define appropriate countermeasures through mitigating controls, and store them with the compliance rules.
Other factors can influence the calculation of employee risk indexes. These include: the type of resource assignment (approved request or direct assignment), attestations, exception approvals for rule violations, identity's responsibilities, and defined weightings. Furthermore, the risk index can be calculated for all business roles, organizations, and system roles that have company resources assigned to them. The user account risk index is calculated based on the system entitlements assigned.
For more information about risk assessment, see the One Identity Manager Risk Assessment Administration Guide.

On the Risk Assessment page, in the list, click the risk index function that you want to edit.
In dialog, from the Calculation type menu, select the calculation type that you want to use for calculating the risk index.
| Maximum (weighted) | The highest value from all relevant risk indexes is calculated, weighted, and taken as basis for the next calculation. |
| Maximum (normalized) | The highest value from all relevant risk indexes is calculated, weighted with the normalized weighting factor, and taken as basis for the next calculation. |
| Increment | The risk index of Table column (target) is incremented by a fixed value. This value is specified in Weighting/Change value. |
| Decrement | The risk index of Table column (target) is decremented by a fixed value. This value is specified in Weighting/Change value. |
| Average(weighted) | The average of all relevant risk indexes is calculated, weighted, and taken as basis for the next calculation. |
| Average(normalized) | The average of all relevant risk indexes is calculated with the normalized weighting factor and taken as basis for the next calculation. |
| Reduction | Used when calculating the reduced risk index for rules, SAP functions, company policies, and attestation policies. You cannot add custom functions with this calculation type! |
Use the slider next to Weighting/change value to set the value with which to weight the risk index in the total calculation or by which value the risk index will be changed respectively.
(Optional) To disable the risk index function, select the check box next to Disable.
