Application Domains
The application domains data shown here is available in our Netify Data Feeds solution. The data is accessible via our IP API as well as downloadable datasets.
Domains
Primary Domains
Primary Domains are owned and managed by the application vendor.
Platform Domains are often provided by hosting providers, content delivery networks, SaaS platforms and other third parties. It is important to identify these domains for DNS filters and hostname blocklists.Platform Domains

Protocol and Port Statistics
This application uses a specialized protocol to establish peer-to-peer connections between two devices. The best way to properly identify KIK on the network is by using Netify DPI.
SaaS - Software-as-a-Service
Applications often use various third party platforms for providing authentication, advertising, cybersecurity, e-mail services and more. The Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) platforms used by KIK are summarized below.

Content Delivery Networks - CDNs
In order to get information to end users more quickly, many applications are distributed from multiple geographical points-of-presence (PoPs) using Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). Each PoP can host many IPs to deliver an application. A sample IP is provided.
Take special note of CDNs that use Anycast technology. Anycast makes it possible to route a single IP address to a variety of different geographic locations. In other words, one global Anycast IP is hosted in multiple geographic locations.
