How is Each Pattern's Score Calculated?
  • If you select Sanctioned User Risk Score from the View menu, the displayed Sanctioned risk score of a user is the sum of all the Sanctioned category risk scores. For example, if the Sanctioned user risk score is 8, score 8 represents the collective sum of all the Sanctioned risk category scores.

NOTE: The final score is obtained by applying a ceiling operation to the total calculated score. For example, the sum of the Sanctioned category risk score 7.3 results in a final score of 8.

  • If you select Shadow User Risk Score from the View menu, the displayed Shadow risk score of a user is the sum of all the Shadow category risk scores.
  • If both Sanctioned and Shadow filters are selected from the View menu, the risk score of a user is calculated using 65% of the Sanctioned category score and 35% of the Shadow category score. For example, if the Sanctioned User Risk Score is 8 and the Shadow User Risk Score is 6, then the computed value ((8x0.65)+(6x0.35)) is 7.3. Hence, the final risk score is 8, obtained by applying the ceiling operation to 7.3.
