Key highlights of the appDo you want to be able to change Comment security defaults? Now you can

Specify multiple configurations for project/global
Support multiple configurations in the project or global (admin) settings, tailored by user group. You can define group-specific configurations and also set a default configuration to apply to all other users.
Specify security defaults for each comment type
Set a default security role or group for each comment type. This default is only applied if the user has the appropriate role or group membership. If not, the "When Default is Missing" option controls what happens next
Use color-coded comment fields
Use color-coded comment fields to clearly differentiate between public and restricted comments. Colors (background or border) can be applied to either Viewable to all comments or all other security levels

More details
Take control of comment visibility — automatically and intelligently.
Ensure every comment lands with the right audience by default. Comment Security Default puts you in control of how comments are secured across Jira — globally or per project — without relying on users to remember the right settings.
🔐 Smarter Comment Security – By Default
- Define default visibility levels for comments, attachments, and during issue transitions
- Require users to manually choose visibility if no default matches their roles
- Use color-coded comment fields to clearly differentiate between public and restricted comments
- Restrict who can configure default settings to maintain oversight
- Seamless integration with Jira Service Management and Jira Software
- Avoid the risk of accidentally exposing internal comments to external users
Ideal for teams that prioritize privacy and control, Comment Security Default helps you protect sensitive communication without slowing your team down.
