Jira Server integrations end-of-life
Effective August 19, 2024, Rapid7 will no longer provide support for Jira Server integrations with InsightVM Remediation Projects. This decision follows the official end-of-life announcement by Atlassian for Jira Server, which occurred on February 15, 2024. Jira Cloud support is available and will continue to be supported. Atlassian Data Center is not supported and there are no imminent plans to support it.

Our Jira integration provides InsightCloudSec with the ability to create Jira tasks and is compatible with all supported resources. For example, you can use this integration to create a Jira task if a Bot locates an Instance with SSH open to the world.
