Yandex LLC (Russian: Яндекс, romanized: Yandeks, IPA: [ˈjandəks]) is a Russian technology company that provides Internet-related products and services including a web browser, search engine, cloud computing, web mapping, online food ordering, streaming media, online shopping, and a ridesharing company.

Yandex Search is the largest search engine in Russia with an estimated 72% market share in Russia[6] and a 2.8% market share worldwide.[7] Yandex Taxi is the largest ridesharing company in Russia.[8]

Yandex was founded by Arkady Volozh and launched its first product, a search engine, in 1997. Due to its significant media activities in Russia, the company has long faced pressure for control by the government of Russia. In July 2024, in a transaction brought about by international sanctions during the Russian invasion of Ukraine and restrictions on foreign ownership, Nebius Group, the Dutch holding company that owned Yandex, sold its Russian assets to a group of Russian investors for a discounted price of US$5.3 billion.

In July 2017, the CatBoost library was released to the public. It implements the Matrixnet algorithm for the building of machine learning models.[160]

At the time of release, the technology was already in use as part of a collaborative project with the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) to analyze the results of conducted particle experiments.[161]

CatBoost is used by JetBrains for code completion, CloudFlare for bot detection, and Careem for trip-distance determination.[162][163][164]

## Data breaches

[edit]

### Cyberattack (October / November 2018)

[edit]

In October and November 2018, Yandex was targeted in a cyberattack using the Regin malware, aimed at stealing technical information from its research and development unit on how users were authenticated.[171] An investigation by Kaspersky Lab attributed the hacks to Five Eyes intelligence agencies.[171]

### Compromise of email accounts of 5,000 users (February 2021)

[edit]

In February 2021, Yandex admitted that one of their system administrators with access rights to Yandex's email service had enabled unauthorized access, leading to almost 5,000 Yandex email inboxes being compromised.[172] The company sent an apology by email to the owners of the compromised mailboxes, but no compensation was announced.[173]

### Source code leak (January 2023)

[edit]

On January 25, 2023, a leaked archive with 44 GB of Yandex source code was shared on BreachForums via BitTorrent.[174][175]

## Legal issues

[edit]

### Legal issues in Ukraine

[edit]

In May 2017, Yandex was banned in Ukraine by Presidential Decree No. 133/2017.[176] On June 1, 2017, Yandex closed its offices in Kyiv and Odesa after the Security Service of Ukraine raided the offices and accused the company of illegally collecting Ukrainian users' data and sending it to Russian security agencies.[177] The firm denied any wrongdoing.[citation needed]

In June 2022, after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the company no longer displayed any national borders on Yandex Maps.[178][179]

### Legal issues in Russia

[edit]

In June 2019, RBC Group reported that Yandex had refused a request by the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) under the Yarovaya law to surrender encryption keys that could decrypt the private data of its e-mail service and cloud storage users. The company argued that it was impossible to comply with the relevant law without compromising its users' privacy.[180] Maxim Akimov, Deputy Prime Minister of Russia, said that the government would take action to relieve FSB pressure on the company.[181] Alexander Zharov, head of the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology and Mass Media, subsequently said that Yandex and the FSB had reached an agreement where the company would provide the required data without handing over the encryption keys.[182]

In April 2021, Yandex was accused by the Federal Antimonopoly Service of promoting its own products in its search results.[183]

In late March 2022, Yandex was the subject of an investigation by Financial Times and Me2B Alliance, a nonprofit organization, as part of an application auditing campaign led by researcher Zach Edwards. Edwards and four expert researchers, including Cher Scarlett, a former Apple security engineer, found that a software development kit (SDK) called AppMetrica, a product of Yandex, was harvesting data from more than 52,000 applications such as a user's device fingerprint and IP address and storing it in Russia on Yandex's servers, which they said due to Russian law, and the nature of SDKs, could be accessed by Russian authorities without their knowledge. Yandex denied that it was practical to identify users based on the information harvested and said that requests for the data would be turned down.[184][185]

In February 2022, upon the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Yandex was threatened by the Russian government regarding information that it posted about Ukraine and added an online banner warning that some search results may contain inaccurate information.[186]

In March 2022, the Bureau of Investigative Journalism reported that Yandex-delivered ads promoted misinformation about the war in Ukraine.[187] Many of the articles displayed in Yandex's news aggregators were also from Russian state-owned and state-sponsored sources and the top search results about the war would sometimes prominently feature pro-war websites.[188]

In March 2022, Tigran Khudaverdyan resigned as executive director and deputy CEO after being sanctioned by the European Union for "hiding information" from the Russian public through the manipulation of search results.[189]

According to an investigation by Meduza published on 5 May 2022, since 2016, the top-5 results on the Yandex home page only includes pro-Kremlin media approved by the Presidential Administration of Russia. Yandex stated that the highest-ranked news on its home page is generated automatically through its algorithm. However, under Russian law, only news received from registered media sources may appear.[190]

In June 2023, Yandex was fined 2 million roubles by a Moscow court for its repeated refusal to share user information with the Federal Security Service.[191][192]

In July 2023, Kinopoisk, a subsidiary of the company, was fined 1 million rubles for "showing films demonstrating non-traditional sexual relations". The fine came after Russia outlawed public displays of non-traditional relationships and lifestyles to people of any age.[193]

In the first half of 2024, the company received 36,540 requests from the Russian government to disclose user data, a 12% increase from the prior year.[194]

In August 2024, the company was accused of collaborating with the Federal Security Service (FSB) to direct users to fake websites for the Freedom of Russia Legion and the Russian Volunteer Corps, groups composed of Russian supporters of Ukraine. The websites collected data from Russians who may be interested in joining the organisations and supporting Ukraine.[195]

## In popular culture

[edit]

In April 2014, a film about the history of Yandex called Startup was released.[196][197] The film was compared to The Social Network.[196]
