Change to risk recommendation scale for Intelligence and Verify Plus

Who is affected: Customers using Intelligence and Verify Plus
Products affected: Intelligence and Verify Plus

Changes

Unified risk recommendation ranges: We unified the numerical risk recommendation ranges for Intelligence 1.0 and 2.0 to improve the consistency of output and ease of configuration of your Intelligence solution. The risk recommendation scale used in Intelligence 1.0 is now the standard for all Intelligence models to improve clarity and better support future model development.

Details about the changes: The risk object contains these child properties – risk.level, risk.recommendation, and risk.score. There are changes to the risk.level and risk.score properties. Our Support Center article discusses these changes and provides a sample json file to help you understand whether this change may impact your configuration. Use this chart to understand the changes (marked as “new”) versus the prior Intelligence behavior (marked as “original”).
