# Device Tampering Verification node

Specifies a threshold for deciding if the device has been tampered with; for example, if it has been rooted or jailbroken.

The device scores between zero and one, based on the likelihood that is has been tampered with or may pose a security risk. For example, an emulator scores the maximum of `1`.

Use this node with the [Device Profile Collector node](device-profile-collector.html) to retrieve the tampering score from the device.

| Score Threshold | Specifies the score threshold for determining if a device has been tampered with. Enter a decimal fraction, between `0` and `1`; for example, `0.75`.The higher the score returned from the device, the more likely the device is jailbroken, rooted, or is a potential security risk.Emulators score the maximum; `1`. |
