So we are using Jira cloud at our company. Works great for us.

After logging in to our instance I see 41 different cookies in my browser. Most of the data is what to expect but at least one is a JWT token containing identity data. My identity data.

Is it really a good idea storing data regarding the logged in user as a cookie? Pretty much in clear text. 

Also do Atlassian really need 41 cookies to keep track of me?
