Billing Overview

The image scan feature provides comprehensive security detection for container images, helping you identify vulnerabilities, trojans, and sensitive data risks within your images. It supports one-click scan, scheduled scan, and risk screening and investigation, and provides professional repair plans, ensuring a secure and trustworthy containerized environment for enterprises.

Billing Mode

Prepaid or yearly/monthly subscription, which is purchased based on your estimated image scan count. The first scan of each image costs $0.06 per scan per month, and subsequent scans cost $0.006 per scan per month (image scan is only available for Professional Edition users, with the purchase duration matching that of Professional Edition, and the number of scans should be a multiple of 300).

Notes on Fees

It adopts a monthly quota system. For the first scan of each image (if there is no historical scan result for this image), 1 quota of the current month will be consumed. For each repeated scan of the same image (if there is a historical scan result for this image), 0.1 scan quotas will be consumed. The unused quota from the previous month will be invalid and will not be carried over to the next month. It is recommended that you make a reasonable purchase of your monthly scan quotas based on actual demand to fully utilize the resources.
Note:
For example, you purchased an image scan quota of 300 scans at 14:00 on March 15, 2024.
From March 15, 2024 at 14:00 to April 15, 2024 at 14:00, scan image A 100 times. The first scan will consume 1 quota, and the remaining 99 scans will consume 9.9 quotas. In total, 10.9 quotas will be consumed, and the remaining 289.1 quotas will be unused (and will be invalidated).
On April 15, 2024, the scanning quota for the image will be reset to 300 times. It can be used from April 15, 2024 at 14:00 to May 15, 2024 at 14:00.

Enabling Scan

One-click Scan: After purchasing image scan quotas, go to the Local Images or Repository Images page, click Scan now, select the images to scan, and click Scan now to initiate an image security scan task.
Scheduled Scan: After purchasing image scan quotas, go to the Local Images or Repository Images page, click Scheduled scan settings, set the scan cycle, risk category, and images to scan, and click Save to start scheduled scan at the specified time point within the cycle.

Notes on Additional Purchase

In the upper left corner of the Local Images and Repository Images pages, you can view your total image scan quota and usage. If the image scan quota is about to be exhausted or is insufficient, you can click Purchase additional quota to purchase more quotas. The additional purchase duration aligns with the protection duration of Professional Edition, with a step size of 300 scans.

Notes on Renewal

After the image scan expires, the service will stop. If the subscription is not renewed within five days, the image scan resources will be terminated.

Notes on Overdue Payment

Expiration Reminder

For the seven days before TCSS expiration, the system will send expiration reminders to your Tencent Cloud account creator, global resource collaborators, and financial collaborators by email and SMS.

Arrears Reminder

On the day of TCSS expiration and after the expiration, the system will send reminders for isolation due to arrears to your Tencent Cloud account creator and all collaborators by email and SMS.

Reclaiming Mechanism

For the seven days before TCSS expiration, the system will send you renewal notifications.
If your account balance is sufficient and you have enabled auto-renewal, the system will perform auto-renewal on the expiration date.
Within five days after suspension, you can still renew the service on the service activation page to restore it.
If your TCSS is not renewed within five days after expiration (including the fifth day), the system will terminate it approximately 24 hours after that period (TCSS will stop and the data will be deleted).

Notes on Refund

Image scan fees are deducted based on actual usage. If a refund is needed, please contact us to request a refund.
