IS there a way to audit changes to security schemes?

Question

Hi all!

I have had some business resistance to using Jira to manage tasks involving confidential data. The argument is that even though security and permission schemes can be set, a Jira admin still has access to all projects. Even if they were to set up security in a way that it excludes admins, they could always go back and allow themselves or others to access the project.

If there a way to audit edits or changes to security schemes, like there is for permission schemes in system audit?

Hi Walter,

Thank you for the reply. I had seen that documentation, and according to that and my tests, edits to a Security scheme (Issue security scheme) do not appear on Jira's audit log. However, I was wondering if there is some other way to monitor this or if it really is not possible.

What I mean by security scheme is this option when you go from Settings > Issues

Hi @Diogo Teles,

While I am not entirely sure what you mean by a security scheme, you can find an overview of all activities that are being recorded in the audit log in this support article.

Hope this helps!
