[Urgent] How to set limitation: users can only access to the project they're working on

Question

Our company are working on quite a lot projects on JIRA, some of them have cooperation relationship with 3rd party vendors , we don't want all users to see all the projects within our company in JIRA. As the administrator of JIRA, can I set limitation of the permission/access that users can only access to projects they're involved in , they should not see issues of other projects that not related to them.

I'm assuming you have got the default setup, which puts jira-users into all projects and hence says "anyone who can log in is in every project as a user".

To fix that,

* Add the users into the roles in the projects they need to see.
* Remove "JIRA users" from the roles that grant it access to all projects.
* Consider going into "roles" and removing the jira-users from "default roles", so that it does not get added to new projects
