A financial services organization is migrating from Jira Server to Jira Cloud. The Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) dictates that the billing department must manage subscriptions and user licensing, the IT operations team must manage site access and user provisioning, and the agile coaching team must configure Jira software schemes and workflows. Which combination of administrator roles should be assigned to these teams respectively to adhere to the principle of least privilege?
Show answer details
Correct answer: D
Organization Admins manage billing, subscriptions, and domains. Site Admins manage user access, groups, and site-level settings. Product Admins (Jira Admins) manage product-specific configurations like schemes and workflows without having access to billing or user provisioning. This setup perfectly aligns with the principle of least privilege.
