Algorithm Selection

All the tests that are executed so far under the processing section are in-built, but what if you want to add a condition or two for these tests or change the input parameters and analyze the results? You may use one of the following actions.

  1. Enable or disable the tests. 
  2. Add weights to the tests to increase the risk score of the hits and the risk entities. 
  3. Add parameters to the tests to reduce the false positives. 

Module Selection for Analysis 

  1. Select the desired module from the drop-down list.
  2. Add in the sub-module.
  3. Select the risk category and click the submit button.
  4. Click the reset button to unselect your previous selections. 

Test Execution 

By default, analytics are grouped by sub module and risk category on the grid. To remove the grouping click on Columns. Remove the fields under Row Groups. Columns in the grid can be added or removed by ticking/unticking the check box.

Work Area Field Descriptors 

You may view all the work area field descriptors by selecting on the "Filters" option on the right-hand side of the grid, located under the "Columns" option.

  • Test ID: List of Test IDs executed on the module. 
  • Test Description: Description of Test IDs executed on the module. 
  • Sub Module: Sub module on which the test has been executed. 
  • Risk Category: Risk category of the test. 
  • Default Score: Default weightage applied on the test. 
  • Update Risk Score: Update the weightage of the test by providing the input in the text box. 
  • Enabled: When the toggle is turned on, the test is enabled and when turned off, the test is disabled.  
    • When the test is disabled and re-executed, all the risk scores and failed transactions of the disabled tests are removed. 
  • Hit%: Percentage of risky transactions for a specific test category.  
    • Hover over the “Hit%” number to see the total number of transactions and those that got flagged for failing the system test.

  • Status: It represents the status of the test execution status. 
    • In progress: It indicates that model execution is in progress. You may use the refresh button to check the change in status. 
    • Completed: It indicates that model execution is completed and the status changes to “View Results”. 
      • Clicking on this option will navigate you to the transaction screen where all the data pertaining to the selected pattern is displayed.  
    • Failed: It indicates that model execution has failed. 

Adjust Parameters 

For a much more customized test, you could change the parameters provided to reduce false positives. The customize-test drop-down on the grid, helps you to customize the test by modifying the parameters or changing the test fields or modifying the SQL. When you click on adjust parameters option, a pop-up appears.

You may add more parameters by clicking on Add button. You could use the Delete icon to remove parameters.

When selecting parameters to adjust, you also have the option to add thresholds to the different parameters.  

  • If the threshold value is updated manually, it will be saved.  
  • If you want to reset it, click on "Reset" to display the default value.  
  • If you enter a value in at least one field and leave the others blank, the data will still be saved.

Prior to executing the model with these parameters, you must train the model, test it and then execute it.

Execute Model 

On the work area click on Save Changes then click on Execute Model to initiate the process. You may click on the Refresh button to monitor the progress. All the analytics displayed in the grid could be downloaded as .csv or .xlsx using the Download button. 

Execute Model, Picture

This screen also lets you view the previous actions performed on the model. Next to each group name is a corresponding history button under the “Action” column.
