Increase the security of your e-services by requesting a risk indication from us. You protect your customers as well as your business.

How it works

You decide in when you want to use the option. The request for the risk indication is added to the call to our RP-API, and the value is included in the response to your service. The following information can be sent with the request:

  • Customer's IP address

  • Launch type: web or app

  • Domain/package name

  • User agent/HW/OS

  • Web cookie/AppHWID

Check the information thoroughly

Incorrect information in the call gives an incorrect risk indication. It can negatively affect both your business and the customer's experience. Ensure that you attach the right type of information and that it's correct.

Technical instructions can be found on our developers website.

The indication is a weighted value

The risk indication is a weighted value of security controls. The indication is categorised as low, medium or high risk. For user privacy and security reasons, we can't share detailed information about the checks or results of specific parts.

A complement to other security measures

Companies and authorities always have overall responsibility for the security of their services. The risk indication from us should be seen as a complement to the overall security measures taken. How your company, or the authority you represent, should act on the indication also depends on other information from your own risk analyzes and the nature of the situation. Handling sensitive information or money transfers often requires greater caution than, for example, an appointment booking service.
