Jira Security Integration

đź’ˇ

Jira has a security feature that allows users to view vulnerabilities directly on the Jira security page. This feature allows teams to collaborate in triaging and tracking relevant vulnerabilities. You are required to install the Plerion security app from the Jira toolchain. This application allows Plerion to push vulnerabilities when they arise.

It is an outbound integration and can be easily set up in the Plerion Platform.
