How to begin a trial of Atlassian Guard Copy link to heading Copied! show +

Since Atlassian Guard is an organization-wide cloud subscription, you must be a site administrator to sign up for a trial.

Follow these steps to get started with your Atlassian Guard Standard evaluation:

  1. Start your journey by going to admin.atlassian.com - your central administration center.
  2. Choose your organization. Atlassian Guard Standard works on the organization-level (not the site-level) so click on the organization you’d like to apply Atlassian Guard Standard policies on top of.
  3. Verify your domain. Before you can take advantage of Atlassian Guard Standard features you’ll need to verify your domain to begin managing all of the Atlassian accounts at your company.
  4. Start your 30-day free trial of Atlassian Guard Standard. Just click on one of the security features like SAML single sign-on, click Learn more, and click the Try it free for 30 days button.
  5. Enable a feature of Atlassian Guard Standard. Start taking advantage of SAML SSO, user provisioning (SCIM) enforced two-step verification, audit logs, and more. 

Trials for Atlassian Guard Premium will be available at GA, and instructions will be added here at that time. Subscribe to our roadmap to track our progress.

Definition of organization and how it relates to Atlassian Guard Copy link to heading Copied! show +

To help administrators manage multiple Atlassian cloud products and sites centrally, we created a global administration layer called organizations.

Through your organization, you can begin managing every user in your company who has access to an Atlassian cloud product and a specific domain or domains in their Atlassian account email address (for example, jane@yourcompany.com).

When you’ve verified your domain and your organization directory is populated, you can then apply Atlassian Guard security policies across the users in your organization.

Atlassian Guard and Data Center Copy link to heading Copied! show +

Atlassian Guard is specifically for Atlassian cloud products while Crowd is for our Data Center products. If your organization has both Atlassian cloud and Data Center products, use Crowd for user management and SSO across Data Center products and use Atlassian Guard to control users and security for cloud products.

Atlassian products that are covered by Atlassian Guard Standard and Premium Copy link to heading Copied! show +

Atlassian Guard Premium currently supports Jira and Confluence Cloud.

Jira Service Management users and Atlassian Guard Copy link to heading Copied! show +

We’ll only bill you for unique users (in Jira Service Management, paid users are called “agents”) that are licensed on Jira Service Management. Users who only create requests with a Jira Service Management portal aren’t licensed (also called “portal-only accounts”), so you won’t be charged for them.
