The changes being made to Atlassian Cloud are in regards to how user identifiable data is being stored, both within Atlassian's own platform and within the way that plugins/add-ons/apps are able to storing that data.

End user authentication is not effected by these changes.

If you are the creator of a plugin for Atlassian Cloud, and you have concerns about making sure that your plugin will continue to work I would recommend the related blog https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2019/02/app-opt-in-api-migration/
