# Sucuri

Canonical: https://inetgeek.com/waf/sucuri/

A website firewall and CDN sold per site per year, bundled with malware cleanup rather than metered by request.

## Who it suits

One site, one annual price, and somebody else cleaning up the malware. $229 a year covers the firewall, a CDN and cleanups, with a 24/7 security team on every tier and no request metering at all.

Consider something else if You run more than one site. The platform plans cover a single site and 2-5 sites means the $999.98 Junior Dev plan, so three sites cost more than four times the single-site price.

## What the documentation says

### Pricing

- Entry paid plan: $229 a year for the Basic Platform — roughly $19 a month, but billed annually and per site rather than per request or per rule. Pro is $339 and Business $549, the difference being malware cleanup response time and scan frequency rather than capacity. ([source](https://sucuri.net/website-firewall/), read 2026-09-15)
- Pricing model: Per site, per year, with no request metering at all. What the tiers buy is service rather than throughput: occasional cleanups on Basic, faster SSL transfers on Pro, fastest malware-cleanup response and more frequent scans on Business. A 30-day guarantee applies and the platform is described as agnostic to the host. ([source](https://sucuri.net/website-firewall/), read 2026-09-15)

### Limits

- Sites or apps included: One site on the $229, $339 and $549 platform plans. Covering 2 to 5 sites means the Junior Dev plan at $999.98 a year — so a freelancer with three clients pays more than four times the single-site price, and the per-site unit is what this category is priced on nowhere else.

### Support

- Support on entry paid plan: A 24/7 security team on every plan, with response time as the thing the tiers actually differ on — Business is sold on "fastest response time for malware cleanups" rather than on capacity or features. ([source](https://sucuri.net/website-firewall/), read 2026-09-15)
