# Configuring Integrations
Identity Intelligence integrates with a number of identity providers (IdPs), Human Resources Information (HRIS) platforms, or critical business applications to ingest data about the users, Non-human identities (NHIs), devices, and applications present in these sources.\
\
With this data, Identity Intelligence not only creates a singular place to gain visibility into all these entity types across all your connected sources, but it also generates [insights](https://docs.oort.io/understanding-check-failures/oort-insights) and alerts that can be sent to various messaging platforms, ticketing systems or SIEMs so that your team to consume this valuable info in the tools already used throughout their day.
Use the cards listed below, which are categorized by integration , to review the available integration options and to jump to the relevant setup guide. Some cards open an overview page with multiple setup methods. You can also refer to the sidebar menu navigation on the lefthand side of this page to navigate directly to the docs for an integration of interest.
### Accessing your Identity Intelligence tenant with Duo Single Sign-On
Access to Identity Intelligence tenant is managed with Duo Single Sign-On or via Cisco Security Cloud Control, depending on your product licensing. \
\
**For Duo Advantage or Premier customers**
Review the [Duo setup guide](https://duo.com/docs/identity-security#overview) for more information on how to enable and configure access to Identity Intelligence via your Duo Admin Panel.
**For all other customers** (including Duo Essentials or Free customers)
Review the documentation for the respective Cisco product (Firewall, Secure Access, XDR, etc.) that entitles you to [limited usage](https://securitydocs.cisco.com/docs/duo/everywhere/solution/160003.dita) of Identity Intelligence via Security Cloud Control. Follow the Identity Intelligence setup steps associated with your licensed product.
## Identity Sources
Identity Sources are the primary data sources that Identity Intelligence uses to build entity graphs and analyzes to generate interesting insights, reports, or detections - also known as Checks. \
\
Multiple providers can be configured per tenant. Multiple instances of a singular provider can also be configured if needed (ie: you can add 3 integrations for Salesforce if your org has multiple, separate Salesforce environments that it would like to monitor)
For details on specific provider sources, such as how to configure an integration, what permissions are needed, etc, locate the integration that you are interested among the cards listed below, or via the side menu navigation, and review the specific article for that source. \
\
If you want to learn about how Identity Intelligence generally handles data type collection, refer to our article on [Managed Integrations](https://docs.oort.io/integrations/managed-integrations).
### Identity Providers (IdPs) & Directories
These integration sources provide Identity Intelligence with data regarding core identities, access events and sign-in events. Many of them also share data regarding NHIs, Apps, and Devices.
### HRIS
HR data often acts as the source of truth for identities in the workplace, making them valuable sources of information\
\
Leverage these integrations to sync workforce data alongside IdP and other SaaS app data within Identity Intelligence and uncover gaps or process issues with user lifecycle flows (joiners, movers and leavers), automated processing, etc. that introduce risk to your organization.
### Critical business applications & other security tools
Organizations typically host a variety of critical and sensitive company info and processes across multiple, disparate tools. This type of info can include protected customer data, mission-critical systems to run your org's products or services, intellectual property and more, and are often forgotten when thinking of a wider org's enterprise security, making them interesting targets for attackers.
Identity Intelligence can integrate with several commonly used and often sensitive SaaS applications, as well as other security products, to ingest this data and leverage it as additional sources of information about the users, NHIs, devices, and apps within your environment to further enrich your IdP/directory data with more context and generate different types of insights.
## Notifications and outbound integrations
Use these integrations to route alerts, notifications, and event streams out of Identity Intelligence.\
\
Notification Targets are configured to allow Identity Intelligence to communicate information regarding checks and other alerts to an external system. These alerts can be sent via email, or via messaging systems including Microsoft Teams, Slack and Webex.
Identity Intelligence also integrates with a couple email providers to allow customers to further customize the notifications Identity Intelligene sends - for example, to change the domain address of the email so it is sent from your org's own domain.
Additionally, you can configure Identity Intelligence use our Webhook system to send alerts to any external systems that can accept webhook events, even if there is no native integration supported, and to build automated processes using this info from Identity Intelligence.
## Ticketing and response workflows
Use these integrations to open and manage response tasks in external ticketing systems that are part of your organization's workflows.
