About this event

As organizations grow, so does the volume and sensitivity of the data they handle. Among the most critical data to protect is personally identifiable information (PII), which includes names, email addresses, phone numbers, employee IDs, and other data points that can be used to identify individuals. Ensuring the protection of PII is no longer optional — it’s a legal, ethical, and operational necessity.

Join us for an in-depth virtual event designed to help you understand the importance of safeguarding PII within Atlassian tools like Jira and Confluence. Whether you're part of a security, compliance, or admin team—or simply interested in protecting your organization’s data—this session will provide the foundational knowledge and practical tips you need to take action.

We’ll cover key topics such as:

- What is PII and Why It Matters: Learn how PII is defined globally and why organizations must treat it with care. Understand the risks of exposure and the benefits of responsible data handling.

- Overview of Key Data Protection Regulations: Get a high-level overview of the most relevant regulations—including GDPR (EU), DSGVO (Germany), and HIPAA (USA)—and how they apply to data managed within Jira and Confluence.

- Common Risks & Best Practices: Discover the most common ways PII can be exposed or mismanaged in Atlassian environments. We’ll walk through actionable best practices for minimizing risk, from permission settings to custom field management and audit strategies.

- 3rd-Party Apps to Strengthen Security: Learn about Marketplace apps that can help automate detection, enforcement, and cleanup of sensitive data. See how the right tools can close gaps and provide peace of mind without interrupting your workflows.

- Live Q&A Session: Bring your questions and challenges to the table! Our experts will be on hand to provide insights tailored to your specific use cases and help you find the right approach to data protection within your team or organization.

This event is perfect for Jira and Confluence admins, compliance professionals, IT/security specialists, and anyone involved in managing or protecting data within Atlassian tools. You’ll leave with a clear understanding of the risks, responsibilities, and solutions available to keep your organization compliant and your data secure.

In a time when data breaches carry significant financial, reputational, and legal consequences, taking a proactive approach is essential. Let us help you build that foundation and guide your next steps.
