Risk profiles page

A risk profile decides how Prefactor scores the data an agent touches. Each profile sets category weights, action multipliers, and score thresholds — you assign a profile to an agent to control how its spans are evaluated.

Every profile configured for your account is listed here. Open one to review or edit its configuration; use Create profile to add a new one.

For an explanation of how weights and multipliers combine into a score, see risk profile.

Create risk profile

Use Create profile to open the creation form. Fields:

• Name (required) and Description.
• Start from template — choose one preset; it pre-fills weights and related fields.
• Data category values — weights for the categories under Standard PII, Sensitive data, and GDPR Article 9 Special Categories. Each category has a weight from 0 to 10 and an inclusion toggle. Excluding a category drops it from the profile regardless of the weight; including a category with weight 0 keeps it in scope but contributes nothing to scores.
• Action risk multipliers (advanced) — Destroy data, Financial transactions, External communication, Create data, Update data, and Read data. Actions also have an inclusion toggle. Excluded actions are not allowed under the profile’s agreed risk.
• Risk level thresholds — Medium ≥, High ≥, and Critical ≥ (numeric inputs within the allowed range).

Saving returns you to the list with the new profile in it. Open it to see and edit the full configuration on the Risk profile page.
