How to govern Inventory in Jira

Steps

1. 1

   Inventory Jira

   Connect Jira and let Rencore build a continuous inventory of its resources, owners, and configuration, so governance starts from what exists rather than a stale export.

2. 2

   Detect with policies

   Turn on the pre-built policies that cover Inventory in Jira to surface oversharing, sprawl, and misconfiguration on the first scan, before writing a single custom rule.

3. 3

   Review by owner and severity

   Use the Jira reports to review findings by owner, category, and severity, and to share them with stakeholders who do not have a seat in the platform.

4. 4

   Remediate and automate

   Apply automations to fix findings at scale, route sensitive changes through approvals, and keep every action reversible and logged for the audit trail.
