Why now?

Workflow systems have become critical infrastructure. Security can’t be an afterthought.

Workflow systems have become critical infrastructure. Security can’t be an afterthought.

Systemic risks in Jira-based workflows

CRITICAL

Data sovereignty risk

EU hosting ≠ EU control. US Cloud Act can still expose your data.

CRITICAL

Limited data governance by design

Manual deletion- and retention controls are insufficient for regulated environments.  

CRITICAL

Loss of AI control

Atlassian dictates which AI touches your data.

HIGH

Rising costs

Vendor lock-in enables yearly Atlassian price increases.

HIGH

Hard-to-exit ecosystem

Customizations and apps make Jira costly and risky to replace.

EMERGING

Growing complexity

Jira’s flexibility quickly turns into configuration debt, low adoption, and high admin effort.

If you run Jira on your own infrastructure,

action is required now.
