How Does Atlassian Data Residency Work?

Atlassian partners with reputable cloud infrastructure providers to store and process customer data within specific geographical regions. When a customer selects a region for their Atlassian products, such as Jira Cloud, the associated data is stored in data centers located within that region. This approach ensures data stays within designated regions and complies with local regulations.

2. Enhanced Data Security: Storing data within a specific region reduces the risk of unauthorized access or data breaches. Atlassian employs robust security practices to protect sensitive information and maintain data confidentiality.

3. Addressing Privacy Concerns: Atlassian Data Residency provides transparency and reassurance to customers regarding the management of their data. It ensures that data remains within the chosen region, addressing privacy concerns and building trust in the platform.
