# High risk countries

If the company has policies regarding sessions from high-risk countries, it is possible to configure Cactusverify for implementing the policies into the platform. When a client from a high-risk county is identified either by IP or by the extracted data from the document MRZ, the verification session stops and appears on the [Rejections ](https://kvalifika.gitbook.io/kvalifika/verification-session/rejections)page. *Settings / Configuration / High-Risk Countries*  shows added countries list and gives Master User possibility to configure them:
