## About Integrations

The Kentik portal is designed to work with a wide variety of external systems in key areas such as authentication and DDoS mitigation. The **Integrations** section of the portal provides a central access point to these various integrations. The integrations on this page are broken into categories and represented as cards. In most cases clicking on a card will open a new tab that is populated with a webpage providing explanatory information about the integration itself or how to set it up.

## Integration Categories

Available integrations currently fall into the following categories:

- **DDoS Mitigation Platforms**: Third-party mitigation platforms that can be triggered via a threshold in an alert policy or started manually (see [**Third-party Mitigation**](/v1/docs/mitigation-overview#thirdparty-mitigation)).
- **SSO Platforms**: Third-party identity providers that can be used for authentication of Kentik users for whom [**Authentication & SSO**](/v1/docs/authentication-sso) is enabled.
- **Notification Channels**: Notification solutions that can be used to communicate with users in a variety of portal contexts (see [**Notifications**](/v1/docs/notifications)).
- **Operations**: Integrations that help you utilize Kentik-connected data in non-Kentik network operations settings (e.g. [**Kentik Connect for Grafana**](https://grafana.com/grafana/plugins/kentik-connect-app/)).
- **Network Platforms**: Integrations that enable you to leverage external platforms to gain greater visibility into factors influencing your costs, performance, or operations (see [**PeeringDB**](/v1/docs/peeringdb)).
