Preconfigured custom risk indicators and policies 编辑

Citrix Analytics for Security provides a list of preconfigured custom risk indicators and a policy to help you monitor the security of your Citrix infrastructure. The conditions of these preconfigured custom risk indicators and the policy are already defined according to specific security risk scenarios such as compromised users, insider threats, and data exfiltration. You can also modify these preconfigured conditions or add your own conditions according to your security requirements and use the custom risk indicators to mitigate the risks.

Currently, the preconfigured custom risk indicators are available for the following scenarios:

• Geofencing

• First time access

Preconfigured custom risk indicators for the geofencing scenario

Use the following preconfigured custom risk indicators to detect the user events from outside the geofenced areas.

• CVAD-Session started outside of geofence

• GW-Geofence crossing

• CCC-Geofence crossing

The preconfigured custom risk indicators are triggered whenever users access the Citrix products from outside their usual country of operation or the geofence. By default, the geofence is set to “United States”. You can set your required country as a geofence.

Note

The CVAD-Session started outside of geofence risk indicator is linked to the Geofence Settings of the Access Assurance Location feature. So, you cannot directly modify the geofenced countries in the condition of the risk indicator. To update the geofenced countries in the risk indicator, select the countries in the Geofence Settings of the Access Assurance Location dashboard. For more information, see the Access assurance location dashboard.

To view the preconfigured custom risk indicators, select Security > Custom Risk Indicators.

By default, the preconfigured custom risk indicators are in the disabled state. Use the STATUS button to enable them.

The following table describes the various preconfigured custom risk indicators for geofencing.

Preconfigured policy for the geofencing scenario

Citrix provides a preconfigured policy that applies the Request End User Response action to a user account whenever the user start a virtual session from outside their country of operation. The user receives an email and based on the user’s response, an appropriate action is taken such as adding the user to the watchlist or notifying the administrator for further action. For more information, see Request end user response.

To view the preconfigured policy, select Security > Policies.

The following table describes the preconfigured policy for geofencing.

Note

The Request End User Response action is supported only in the United States region. So, if your organization is onboarded to the European Union region in Citrix Cloud, the preconfigured policy does not get applied to your account. To use the preconfigured policy, modify the policy and select another action of your choice.

Create your own policy with preconfigured custom risk indicators for geofencing

You can also create your own policies with these preconfigured custom risk indicators and apply actions such as lock users or log off users whenever the indicators are triggered. For information on how to create policies, see Configure policies and actions.

The following example shows a policy that locks users who try to access the Citrix services from outside the United States. The user access is locked if the user does not recognize their access activity.

Condition: GW-Geofence crossing

Action: Request end user response

Next action: Lock the user if the user does not recognize the activity

Note

The Request End User Response action is supported only in the United States region. So, if your organization is onboarded to the European Union region, select another action of your choice instead of the Request End User Response action.

Preconfigured custom risk indicators for the first time access scenario

Use the following custom risk indicators to detect the user events for the first time access scenarios:

• CVAD-First time access from new device

• Gateway-First time access from new IP

By default, these preconfigured custom risk indicators are in the enabled state. Use the STATUS button if you want to disable them.

The following table describes the preconfigured custom risk indicators for first time access.

On the condition bar, you can also add your own conditions in addition to the preconfigured conditions to identify threats as per your requirements.

For example, if you want to identify the user events from a particular country, you can add the country dimension along with the preconfigured condition:

• Event-Type = "Session.Logon" AND Client-Type IN ("XA.Receiver.Windows", "XA.Receiver.Mac", "XA.Receiver.Chrome", "XA.Receiver.Android", "XA.Receiver.Linux", "XA.Receiver.iOS") AND Country = “United States”

• Event-Type = "Authentication" AND Status-Code = "Successful login" AND Client-IP-Type != "private" AND Access-Insight-Flags = 1 AND Country = “United States”
