Yeti
Yeti is the search index crawler run by Naver: indexes pages for Naver search in South Korea. Its operator publishes no IP ranges or DNS names for it, so a request carrying this name cannot be verified. Treat the name in a log line as a claim.

| Operator | Naver |
| What it does | indexes pages for Naver search in South Korea |
| Kind | search index crawler |
| Can a request be verified? | No — user agent string only |
| In a CrawlCheck scan | Read from robots.txt; reported, never scored |
Allow or block it in robots.txt
User-agent: Yeti Disallow: /
User-agent: Yeti Allow: /
Add a group that names it: "User-agent: Yeti" followed by "Disallow: /". A crawler follows only the most specific group that names it, so once a group names Yeti, rules under "User-agent: *" no longer apply to it; repeat in that group any Disallow lines you still want.
What blocking it changes
No. It indexes for a regional search engine; allowing it matters only if you serve that market.
