Changing scores for rooting/jailbreak detection

Note: Rooting/Jailbreak Detection is not relevant if MobileSafe SDK 4.0 or a later version is installed on your protected app.

Before changing scores for rooting/jailbreak detection, you should create a mobile security anti-fraud profile.

Change scores for rooting/jailbreak detection if you want to raise or lower the default risk scores that the system automatically assigns if a customer’s mobile device is determined to be rooted (Android) or jailbroken (iOS).

    The Anti-Fraud Profiles screen opens.

  2. In the Anti-Fraud Profiles screen, click the mobile security anti-fraud profile in the profiles list.

    The Anti-Fraud Profile Properties screen opens.

  3. In the Anti-Fraud Configuration area, click Mobile Security.

    The list of Mobile Security configuration options appear.

  4. In the list of Mobile Security configuration options, click Rooting/Jailbreak Detection.

    The Rooting/Jailbreak Detection configuration options appear.

  5. Select the Customize All check box.

  6. Ensure that the Enabled check box for Rooting/Jailbreak Detection is selected.

  7. In the Rooting Score (Android) field, type a score.
