About AppSec Assistant

AppSec Assistant is a Jira plugin designed to streamline security workflows by providing intelligent recommendations. It utilizes AI to generate security suggestions within the Jira Cloud, aiding developers in creating software that is secure by design. It put emphasis on data control and security, by ensuring that user data, including OpenAI API keys, remain within trusted environments. AppSec Assistant is also designed for simple setup where addition of one's OpenAI API key and, optionally, organization's detail is all that's required to reinforce the security of Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). The tool leverages Atlassian's Storage API for encryption and safe-keeping of OpenAI API key information. It promotes efficiency by reducing the time spent on manual application security (AppSec) reviews, providing security recommendations specific to each ticket with a click. AppSec Assistant allows developers to work at a fast pace while helping ensure security considerations are integrated from the start. It also offers the capacity for custom deployments within Jira Cloud by enabling usage of your own Language Model (LLM) or General AI (GEN-AI) infrastructure.
