IM InfoSphere Identity Insight, Version 8.0

Configuring role alert rules

You configure role alert rules to generate role alerts or relationships between two roles or identities.

Before you begin

Before defining a role alert rule, you must first configure the roles that you want to use in the role alert rule. For example, if you want to configure a role alert rule where an employee cannot be a vendor, your system must contain the roles of "Employee" and "Vendor".

Procedure

  1. Click the Setup button.
  2. Click the Relationships button.
  3. Click Role Alert Rules tab.
  4. Complete one of the following steps:
    • To create a new role alert rule, click the New button.
    • To create a role alert rule based on an existing role alert rule, select a role alert rule from the list, and then click the Clone button.
    The Role Alert Rule ID field is automatically filled with the next unique ID. You can change this to any unique ID number.
  5. Click the New button.
  6. On the General tab, specify the ID, description, severity, role codes, alert group and minimum alert threshold for this role alert rule.
  7. On the Filters tab, optionally specify the identity filter, data change filter, and path strength adjustment (only shown if the data change filter field is set to Path Strength Adjustment). If both filters are set, only one filter has to be met to generate a role alert.
  8. Click the Save button.
