Customize the BlackBerry Persona risk engines
BlackBerry Persona
risk enginesYou can choose which risk engines you want
BlackBerry Persona
to use. For example, you can choose to turn off the identity risk engines (behavioral patterns and continuous authentication app anomaly) and have Persona
determine a user’s risk level and corresponding actions using defined geozones and learned geozones only. Enable the risk engines that meet your organization’s security standards. All risk engines are enabled by default.
You can customize the risk score ranges for behavioral risk and learned geozone risk. The default risk ranges are:
Risk level | Behavioral risk score (%) | Learned geozone risk range (upper limit of the distance from a learned geozone) |
|---|---|---|
Low | 0 - 40 | 150 yards |
Medium | 40 - 80 | 10 miles |
High | 80 - 100 | > 10 miles |
- In theBlackBerry Persona Analytics Portal, on the menu bar, clickSettings > Risk engines.
- If desired, turn off any of thePersonarisk engines.Turning off a risk engine will disable the corresponding scoring and risk actions for all users, regardless of whether actions are configured for that risk engine in an individual policy.Continuous authentication app anomalycontrols whetherBlackBerry Dynamicsapps send behavioral data and events to thePersonaservices. The services use this information to train and build a usage model for the user. If an app reports behavior that does not fit the usage model (for example, the user forwards multiple email messages in a row, which is atypical for that user),Personatriggers an action that you specify in a policy.
- If you want to change the behavioral risk score ranges, in theBehavioral pattern risksection, click and drag the sliders.
- If you want to change the learned geozone risk ranges, in theLearned geozone risk enginesection, specify the upper limit of the low-risk range and medium-risk range from learned locations.
