# DigitalOcean Integration

DigitalOcean is a cloud infrastructure provider used to deploy and manage applications, databases, networking components, and storage resources.

By integrating DigitalOcean with Sprinto, you can:

* Monitor infrastructure resources such as droplets, load balancers, databases, volumes, and firewalls
* Track user access and account configurations
* Automate evidence collection for infrastructure monitoring controls
* Maintain continuous compliance visibility

Sprinto automates **5 controls and 5 checks** for this integration.

***

### Prerequisites

* You have **Admin access** to your DigitalOcean account.
* You have permission to authorise third-party OAuth integrations.

#### Permissions Required

Sprinto reads metadata related to:

* Account
* Apps
