Buying SecMaster

Scenarios

SecMaster supports the yearly/monthly and pay-per-use billing modes. The basic and standard editions support only the yearly/monthly billing mode. The professional edition supports the yearly/monthly and pay-per-use billing modes. You can purchase SecMaster based on your service requirements.

Buying SecMaster

  1. Log in to the management console.
  2. Click in the upper left corner of the management console and select a region or project.
  3. Click in the upper left corner of the page and choose Security & Compliance > SecMaster.
  4. On the Security Overview page, click Buy SecMaster in the upper right corner.
  5. (Optional) Obtain purchase authorization.

    Access authorization is required only when first time you buy the service. SecMaster needs your authorization to obtain the ECS asset details. On the Access Authorization slide-out panel displayed, select Agree and click OK.

  6. On the purchase page, configure parameters by referring to the following table.

    Table 1 Parameters for buying SecMaster

    Parameter

    Description

    Billing Mode

    Select Yearly/Monthly or Pay-per-use billing mode based on your needs.

    Yearly/Monthly is a prepaid billing mode. You pay in advance for a subscription term. The longer the subscription term, the bigger the discount.

    Pay-per-use billing is a postpaid mode in which you pay for what you use. You are billed by second based on the actual usage. Your bill is settled by the hour. With the pay-per-use billing mode, you can easily adapt to resource requirement changes, reducing the risk of over-provisioning of resources or lacking capacity. In this mode, there are no upfront commitments required.

    Region

    Select the region where your cloud resources are located.

    Edition

    SecMaster provides basic, standard, and professional editions for your choice. For details about their differences, see Edition Differences.

    Quota

    The quota indicates the maximum number of servers that require protection.

    The total ECS quota must be greater than or equal to the total number of hosts within your account. This value cannot be changed to a smaller one after your purchase is complete.

    NOTE:
    • The maximum quota is 10,000.
    • If some of your ECSs are not protected by SecMaster, threats to them cannot be detected in a timely manner, which may result in security risks, such as data leakage. To prevent this, increase the ECS quota upon an increase of the host asset quantity.

    Large Screen

    You can enable Large Screen, Security Analysis, and Security Orchestration. If you want to purchase value-added package in yearly/monthly billing mode, select a required duration.

    For details about the value-added package and recommended configurations, see Value-added Package Specifications.

      Security Analysis

      You can estimate the security analysis data volume based on 120 MB/ECS/day.

If the quota for security analysis is used up, this function becomes unavailable on that day, but it turns to be available at 00:00 the next day.

      For example, if this parameter is set to 1 GB/day, each day there will be 1 GB of security data that can be collected, 1 GB of security data stored, 1 GB of security data exported, 1 GB of platform security data reported, and 1 GB of data for security modeling analysis.
