Getting started with Guard

Set up Guard for your organization

Guard adds an additional layer of security and management for your users and data across Atlassian apps. Before you start, verify your organization's domain(s) and claim your accounts. Let stakeholders, admins, and teams using Atlassian apps know that their accounts will become managed. To set up Guard:

  1. Confirm or verify your domain(s): Verifying your domain(s) proves you own it, allowing you to claim and manage all user accounts tied to your organization.
  2. Claim your accounts: Manage users more effectively and apply security settings automatically at scale by claiming accounts.
  3. Set up Guard: Start your free 30-day trial. You need to be an organization admin to start a trial.

Once you're set up, use the security controls in this guide to build a layered security strategy for your organization.


Pick the right Guard plan for you

Every organization has different security and compliance requirements, and these needs change over time. That's why you can choose between two Guard plans.

Guard Standard

Guard Standard is designed for organizations that need more visibility and flexible security controls. It provides enterprise-grade identity and access management so you can control who can access Atlassian data, how, and at what level. It offers:

  • Identity and access controls to secure users at scale
  • Automated user lifecycle management to reduce manual provisioning
  • Org-wide visibility to mitigate access risk

Guard Premium

Guard Premium builds on Guard Standard to provide advanced data loss prevention, threat detection, and remediation for organizations with more stringent security and compliance requirements. It offers:

  • Granular, content-aware controls to protect confidential data
  • Content scanning and detections for deeper visibility into user activity and suspicious behavior across Atlassian
  • Real-time investigation and remediation workflows to tackle potential threats
  • Granular Rovo controls to keep sensitive data out of prompts and responses
