I keep getting security risk calls today regarding my ICloud account saying that it has been breached. Assume that it is a scam?

are the "security risk" "ICloud account breached" phone calls valid or a scam??

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 14

It is a scam. Apple doesn't make unsolicited phone calls. If there was a problem you would be notified when attempting to log in, including when logging into this forum. Also see: Recognize and avoid phishing messages, phony support calls, and other scams - Apple Support

One option to consider is Settings > Phone > Silence Unknown Callers. See: Detect and block spam phone calls - Apple Support
