Is 2-Factor Authentication for hosted Jira (i.e. the "Cloud" product) supported?

Question

As far as I know: no.

But it is already demanded as a change request.

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ID-256

https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/JRA-20999

For the JIRA Server and JIRA DataCenter environments there are some 2FA add-ons available:

So our plugin:

As well as for Confluence:

Thanks for your responses. I was surprised to find that hosted JIRA doesn't inherently support 2FA. It is an elementary feature for cloud applications and every other SaaS application we use supports it.

Dear Haris,

our JIRA plugin only supports JIRA server, as it is not possible to access the authentication system of JIRA cloud, via plugins at the moment.
