Configuring Access Controls in Bitbucket Cloud for Enhanced Security

Purnendu Chavan January 17, 2025

 

How can we configure Bitbucket Cloud to ensure that:
a. Specific user accounts are accessible only from our corporate IP addresses or VPN?
b. Access to specific user accounts is restricted to managed devices (e.g., corporate laptops) and cannot be accessed from personal systems?

Hi Purnendu,

It is possible to restrict access only to certain IP addresses for Bitbucket workspaces on the Premium plan:

If you are a workspace admin, you can do it the following way:

  1. Open the workspace on Bitbucket's website

  2. Select the cog icon at the top right corner of the page (next to your avatar) > select Workspace settings

  3. On the new page, select Access controls from the left sidebar

  4. On the new page, you can check the option Restrict access to certain IP addresses and use the link Add or remove IP addresses to enter the list of IP addresses or ranges you want to limit the access to.

    Please keep in mind that these options will be disabled if the workspace is not on a Premium plan.

  5. When you're finished, make sure you select the button Update at the bottom of the page.

 

Restricting access to specific devices is not possible at the moment. We have the following feature request for restricting access based on a MAC address:

I suggest adding your vote to that feature request (by selecting the Vote for this issue link) as the number of votes helps our product managers better understand the demand for new features. You are more than welcome to leave feedback, and you can also add yourself as a watcher (by selecting the Start watching this issue link) if you'd like to be notified via email on updates.

Implementation of features is done as per our policy here and any updates will be posted in the feature request.

 

Please feel free to let me know if you have any questions.

Kind regards,
Theodora
