At LARUS, we strive to provide a fair and transparent pricing structure for our IP address leasing services. One key component of our monthly pricing is what we call Risk Credit (RC). This dynamic pricing mechanism allows us to adjust costs based on the assessed risk level of a customer’s network activity. Here’s how it works:
Risk Credit is a monthly adjustment to the standard leasing price, determined by our evaluation of the risk level associated with the use of the IP addresses leased to each customer. It reflects our commitment to maintaining the integrity and reputation of our IP address assets while encouraging responsible network behavior.
We use a combination of factors to determine the risk level of a customer’s network, including but not limited to:
• Abuse Reports: We review daily abuse reports received about the usage of IP addresses by our customers.
• Behavioral Signals: Other indicators that suggest potential misuse or risky activities within the network.
• Network Reputation: The overall impact the network has on the IP ecosystem.
1. Standard Risk Level:
All customers start with a standard RC, which is included in the initial leasing price.
2. Dynamic Adjustments:
All adjustments to RC are based on our proprietary algorithm, which evaluates multiple factors, including abuse reports and network behavior, to provide a fair and accurate risk assessment.
• Low-Risk Networks: Customers who maintain a low-risk network may qualify for discounts on the standard price as a reward for their responsible usage.
• High-Risk Networks: Customers operating higher-risk networks may incur higher RC fees. These adjustments reflect the increased resources and safeguards required to manage these risks.
• Extreme Risk Cases: For networks deemed exceptionally high risk, we reserve the right to terminate the lease to protect the integrity of our IP address pool.
3. Long-Term Benefits:
The longer you remain a risk-free customer, the better your access to the best pricing on the market. Consistent low-risk performance not only earns you discounts but also positions you to enjoy some of the most competitive rates in the industry.
By basing RC adjustments on a robust, data-driven approach and rewarding sustained good behavior, we aim to foster a productive, long-term partnership with our customers.
We are committed to working collaboratively with our customers to help them manage and reduce risk. Our team is always available to provide insights into RC adjustments and to help you take steps to maintain a positive network reputation.
The RC mechanism ensures a sustainable relationship between LARUS and our customers while preserving the value and integrity of the IP addresses we lease. By promoting responsible network behavior, we aim to create a win-win situation for all parties.
