Atlassian Guard for unified authentication between Jira Align and Jira Cloud

Authenticate once, securely and efficiently

Say goodbye to repetitive logins when transitioning between Jira Align and Jira. For Jira Align customers subscribed to Atlassian Guard, you now have the option to set up Jira Align to use your Atlassian account details for logging in. SAML single sign-on (SSO) allows users to authenticate to Atlassian cloud products through a company's existing identity provider, meaning users access multiple products with the same set of credentials while using a simplified and more secure method of authentication than just a username and password.
