User Risk Categories
User risk categories represent classifications based on the type of user activity, such as download, cloud usage, privilege, login, etc. The two user risk categories are Sanctioned and Shadow:
- Sanctioned User Risk Categories. Represents the risk categories of Sanctioned services. Sanctioned services are approved, managed, and monitored by your organization’s IT or security teams. Skyhigh CASB provides default risk category weights to calculate the User Risk Score for a user based on their activities in Sanctioned services.
- Shadow User Risk Categories. Represents the risk categories of Shadow services. Shadow services are unsanctioned, unmanaged, or unapproved applications used outside the organization’s IT oversight. Skyhigh CASB provides default risk category weights to calculate the User Risk Score for a user based on their activities in Shadow services.
