Jira

SecDim offers multiple ways of integrating with Jira. This allows customers to provide Just In Time (JIT) training to their users directly within their Jira environment. The SecDim Jira App is provided out of the box and requires minimal setup. Additionally, SecDim can be integrated with Jira Automation to provide more customized training experiences based on specific conditions in your Jira issues.

Jira App

The SecDim for Jira app allows users to access SecDim content directly from Jira issues, providing context-sensitive training.

Benefits of Jira App Integration

  • Contextual Learning: Users can access relevant training content directly from Jira security issues, providing in context learning experience.

  • Seamless Access: Users can launch SecDim content directly from the Jira interface.

Prerequisites

  • Ensure you have administrative access to your Jira instance to install the SecDim app.

How it works

The Jira app can be installed via a private URL shared by SecDim support with your Jira administrator.

Jira App

Once installed, users can access SecDim content based on the CWE (Common Weakness Enumeration) associated with the Jira issue by clicking on the SecDim icon in the issue view.

The appp will suggest learning content that can be run directly using the Play button. This allows users to quickly start learning about the specific security issue they are facing.

Jira Automation

SecDim offers a more customizable integration with Jira through the use of Jira Automation. This allows you to create rules that automatically trigger SecDim content based on specific conditions in your Jira issues. We offer ready-made templates for common use cases, such as triggering training when a security issue is created or updated, or when a specific label is added to an issue.

Benefits of Jira Automation Integration

  • Customizable Training Triggers: You can define specific conditions under which SecDim content is triggered, allowing for tailored training experiences.

  • Automated Learning Paths: Automatically assign training based on issue types, labels, or other criteria, ensuring users receive relevant training without manual intervention.

Prerequisites

  • Administrative access to your Jira instance to create automation rules.

  • Basic understanding of Jira Automation rules. The SecDim support team can assist with creating these rules if needed.

Example Use Case: Creating sub-issue on security issues

You can create a Jira Automation rule that triggers when a security issue is created or updated. This rule can automatically create a sub-issue for the user to complete SecDim training related to the security issue.

Jira App

Using the SecDim APIs the automation will add the specific training content to the sub-issue, allowing users to easily access and complete the training, assign it and manage it like any other Jira issue.
