Rules

Rules let you customize the risk recommendation based on specific business criteria, expressed in a simplified language. Each rule is evaluated against the data of the received event and can override the account’s default recommendation.

Structure

A rule is made up of one or more conditions. Each condition contains:

  • an expression that returns true or false;
  • an action, executed when the expression is true.

Conditions are evaluated in order. When one is satisfied, its action is applied and the rest are ignored. If no condition is satisfied, the recommendation follows the account’s default configuration.

Actions

When a condition is true, the recommendation is set by the configured action:

  • Allow (allow)
  • Challenge (challenge)
  • Deny (deny)

The action overrides the automatically calculated score.

Limitations

There are quantity and size limits applicable to rules and lists. Check the platform limits and parameters before planning extensive configurations.
