Managing your registered devices

You can modify the registered device fingerprints that the risk engine compares with incoming request device fingerprints in risk score calculation scenarios.

About this task

You can complete the following tasks:
  • View a list of your registered devices and the list of attributes that each device has.
  • Rename your registered devices.
  • Remove your registered devices.
  • Disable your registered devices. When you disable a registered device, the device is still registered. However, when a login request comes from the disabled device, the risk engine gives that session the highest level of risk possible, which is 100.
  • Enable your registered devices.
