Has your team ever accidentally shared credentials in Jira? Would a secrets detector help?

Hi Jira admins,

 I’ve noticed many teams accidentally include sensitive info (like API keys or passwords) in Jira ticket bodies, comments, or file attachments — especially during debugging or incident reporting.

I’m exploring an AI tool that:

  • Scans Jira issues and attachments for exposed secrets

  • Validates if the secret is real/active

  • Flags the issue and suggests a safe redaction or replacement

  • Optionally integrates with Bitbucket and Confluence to do the same across all content

Would your team find something like this useful?

Have you run into issues with secrets being shared in tickets or logs?

Would you be open to a tool that helps remediate those safely, with manual control?

 Trying to validate interest before building. Happy to hear any feedback.

Hi @johnsbucket ,

please look at Atlassian Guard Detect functionalities: https://support.atlassian.com/security-and-access-policies/docs/what-is-guard-detect/

Yes, we've seen sensitive info like keys or tokens end up in Jira tickets, especially during fast-paced incident response. A tool like this would be really helpful, especially if it can validate and flag active secrets. Integration across Jira, Bitbucket, and Confluence makes it even more valuable. Manual control over remediation is a must — I'd be interested in trying this out.
