New Blog | Resource-level billing change for Defender for Servers Customers

By Yotam Atad

 

Who does this change applies to:

This update is relevant for users with Defender for Servers activated on their Workspaces (with agent installed) or those utilizing the AWS Connector with Defender for Servers enabled.

What's new: 

Effective Monday, <30 days from release>, only when Defender for Servers is enabled for the resources' subscription or the subscription hosting a Connector for AWS resources: 

• Direct Billing to Resources: We're changing how we report your billing. Instead of using a general workspace ID, your bills will now be directly linked to each compute resource ID. This means each Virtual Machine (VM), Virtual Machine Scale Set (VMSS), Azure Arc-enabled server and EC2 Instance will have its own billing entry. 
• More Detailed Billing: Customers will no longer receive one large bill for all workspace resources. Starting March 11, customers will see individual costs for each of the above resources. This granular view will provide a clearer picture of what subscriptions your costs are allocated to.
• AWS Specifics: For those using AWS resources, the subscription hosting the AWS Connector will be billed for the resources used.
