Risk weights decide how much each signal adds to the suspect score, and the threshold decides where high begins. Changes apply to the next identification: no SDK update, no redeploy.
Profiles
Weights live in profiles, one per platform: web, Android and iOS. When an identification is scored, Fingerly uses the first profile that exists:
| Order | Profile | Set in |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | The SDK key's own profile, when it has one | The management API |
| 2 | Your organization's profile | The dashboard or the management API |
| 3 | The defaults | Built in |
A profile can be partial. A signal it does not mention uses the default weight, while a signal set to 0 stays at 0. The event records which profile scored it.
Change weights in the dashboard
Open Smart Signals > Suspect Score. Each signal has a weight per platform, next to the threshold and the weighting modes. Changes save as you make them. Owners and admins can edit; every member can view.
Limits
- Weights are whole numbers from
0to10000. - The threshold is a whole number from
1to1000000. The default is30. - A signal that does not exist on a platform cannot be given a weight there.
Weighting modes
VPN and residential proxy findings can be weighed in one of two ways, chosen per profile.
| Mode | Weighs | Choose it when |
|---|---|---|
method (default) | Each way the VPN or proxy was recognised, separately. | You want to treat, say, a mobile carrier VPN differently from a commercial one. |
confidence | One weight each for low, medium and high confidence. | You care how sure the finding is, not how it was made. |
Safe changes
Profiles carry a revision. When two people edit at once, the second save is refused with a conflict rather than silently overwriting the first. Reload and apply your change again.
A worked example
automation 9 + tampering 8 + high_activity 6 + privacy_settings 6 = 29 medium
automation 12 + tampering 8 + high_activity 6 + privacy_settings 6 = 32 high
Raising one weight moved the same session across the threshold. Look at real sessions near your threshold in Insights > Suspect score trends before and after a change.
