Security
Atlassian is committed to improving its software development by continuously running tests to stay ahead of potential vulnerabilities and future security threats. To focus on the fundamentals of security, they use various programs to ensure security remains comprehensive and proactive. This occurs concretely by implementing a series of security domains handled using Jira and Confluence applications. This will provide that Atlassian creates products used by all Atlassian customers, with increased security in both environments and processes.
Reliability

Privacy
Atlassian has taken responsibility for protecting customer data and complying with GDPR and other international privacy laws. Atlassian wants to give its customers the best conditions for success without worrying about data security. Part of the privacy policy work is to help Atlassian customers understand how they comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). In short, GDPR is designed to give EU citizens more control over their data and to bring together several existing privacy and security laws under one law. The GDPR applies not only to organizations located in the EU but also to all companies that process and store personal data about registered persons residing in the EU, regardless of the company’s location. Atlassian is committed to complying with data protection regulations, ensuring that organizational data is kept secure and controlled. In addition, Atlassian annually publishes a Transparency Report, where you have the opportunity to see which data authorities have requested.
Compliance
Atlassian adheres to compliance with rules and guidelines. Cloud products regularly undergo independent third-party audits, security, privacy, compliance checks, and certifications that meet global standards. Atlassian has industry-accepted credentials that adhere to applicable industry standards and regulations, so you can feel confident that your business and customer data will remain secure and compliant. The certifications Atlassian has obtained are; ISO 27001 (Specification for an Information Security Management System), SOC 2 (Systems and Organizational Controls), SOC 3 (Systems and Organizational Controls), FedRAMP (Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program), PCI DSS (Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard) and VPAT (Voluntary Product Availability Template).
