+### Static Risk Score
+
+Static analysis calculates an overall risk score by combining suspicious API severity levels and section entropy risk levels.
+
+The score is heuristic and does not prove that a file is malicious. It is used to prioritize files that may need deeper manual review.
+
+Risk levels:
+
+| Score Range | Risk Level |
+| ----------- | ---------- |
+| 0 - 19      | Low        |
+| 20 - 49     | Medium     |
+| 50 - 100    | High       |
