# Vault Risk Reports

This section includes Sentora’s risk reports, methodology, controls, monitoring, governance, and coverage updates.

## From Diligence To Live Controls

#### Sentora's front-to-back risk infrastructure for vault curation

Vault curation requires more than just an onboarding review because risk profiles evolve significantly after deployment. Protocol parameters can shift after approval, while collateral composition can vary across markets and oracle routes may change during operations. Furthermore, liquidity can exit faster than standard review cycles can address, and security events can impact exposure before a formal committee meeting can be convened.

Sentora addresses this problem through structured infrastructure. The process begins with a DDQ review of blockchains, protocols, and assets, followed by the establishment of risk framework policies for Sentora-Vaults, Smart Yield clients, and Protocol-Vaults. These policies are then codified into enforceable mandates, protocol configurations, risk triggers, and monitoring systems, which drive alerts, reporting, and escalation.

In this front-to-back operating model, the DDQ process defines the approved universe while the risk framework establishes acceptable exposure. The Sentora Risk Application then translates both into live controls, with reporting and escalation closing the loop through a governed review.

## USDe Oracle Design

Sentora selects the oracle design that best fits each deployment. Across our deployments we have used market price oracles, redemption price oracles, proof of reserves and fixed price oracles, choosing in each case according to the asset, the liquidity available and the risk borne by lenders.\
For USDe,  Sentora uses a Chainlink market price oracle. Our position is that collateral valuation should reflect market conditions, including the possibility that USDe trades below $1.<br>

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://resources.vaults.sentora.com/vault-details-and-risk-reports/vault-risk-reports.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
