Yandex Smart Web Security pricing policy
What goes into the cost of using Smart Web Security
The cost depends on the billing mode:
-
By subscription: Best for large amounts of incoming traffic.
-
By request count: Best for small amounts of incoming traffic.
Both methods are based on the number of requests across all clouds linked to a single billing account.
Only legitimate requests are counted for billing purposes. These are requests that were allowed by all rules and let through to the protected resource.
At the same time, there are things to consider about billing in the dry run mode.
-
If a rule has blocked a request, in the dry run mode, requests are not blocked and reach their destination. Such requests will be counted towards consumption.
-
If dry run was enabled only for one rule type, e.g., security profile rules, and the request was blocked by a WAF or ARL rule without dry run on, such a request will not be counted towards consumption.
Requests processed by ARL profile rules will not be counted towards consumption. Blocked requests will not be counted either, no matter when and which rule blocked them.

Billing by request count
Tip
To calculate the cost of using the service, use the calculator on the Yandex Cloud website or see the pricing data in this section.
Prices for service products are also available in the Price list.
You pay for the actual number of legitimate requests. For each request, you pay for:
-
Processing by security profile rules: basic and Smart Protection.
-
Processing by WAF rules. If your request is processed by security profile rules and then WAF rules, you pay for both.
-
Processing by rules in the dry run mode if the request has reached the protected resource.

Let’s calculate the cost of 315.04 million legitimate requests per month processed by security profile rules:
0.01 × ₽0 + 0.99 × ₽27000.00 + 9 × ₽3780.00 + 90 × ₽216.00 + 215.04 × ₽151.20 = ₽112,704.048, including VAT.
Where:
- 0.01 × ₽0: Non-billable threshold of the first 0.01 million requests.
- 0.99 × ₽27000.00: Cost of the subsequent 0.99 million requests.
