Risk Score based authentication leverages the integration with Omnissa Intelligence to allow you to configure authentication based on a user's risk score. Enable the User Risk Score authentication method in the Omnissa Access console. You then select the type of authentication action to apply to user risk scores based on high, medium, or low scores.
Note: Risk Score based authentication is available for cloud deployments only.
You can allow access, require step-up authentication, or deny access. The action associated to the user risk score determines the user experience.
- Allow Access. With a low risk score, users can log in as normal and the Omnissa Access access policy rules are followed.
- Step-Up Authentication. With a medium risk score, users require step-up authentication. They cannot log in with only the credential that was entered. The second authentication method configured in the access policy is presented to the user.
- Deny Access. With a high risk score, users cannot log in and no other login option is presented to the user.
Prerequisites
Register your Omnissa Access tenant with Workspace ONE Intelligence. See Omnissa Access Integration for information.
