# Fundamentals

> Learn how the Webacy Risk Framework calculates onchain risk scores from data ingestion through entity typing, risk factor analysis, and rating generation.

The Risk Framework is the foundation of how Webacy evaluates blockchain risk. It defines the scores, methodologies, entity types, and detection engines that power every API, alert, dashboard, policy decision, and rating across the platform.

<Info>
  The blockchain ecosystem is constantly evolving, and so is the Webacy Risk Framework. As new asset types, attack vectors, regulatory expectations, and onchain behaviors emerge, we continuously update our methodologies, risk factors, and detection engines to reflect the latest understanding of risk. While the overall framework and evaluation process remain consistent, individual scoring models and risk signals may change over time as we improve the platform.

This section explains how risk is calculated, what each score represents, and how Webacy combines security, financial, operational, and compliance intelligence into a single, real-time view of onchain risk.

## Risk Intelligence Pipeline

The diagram below illustrates the high-level pipeline Webacy uses to transform raw blockchain data into actionable risk intelligence across our products and integrations.
