Permissions General Overview

JIRA has a flexible security system which allows you to configure who can
access JIRA, and what they can do/see within JIRA. There are five types of
security within JIRA:
1. Global permissions
<https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiracloud/managing-global-permissions-776636359.html>
-
these apply to JIRA as a whole (e.g. who can log in).
2. Project permissions
<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Managing+Project+Permissions>
organised into permission schemes, these apply to projects as a whole
(e.g. who can see the project's issues ('Browse' permission), create, edit
and assign them).
3. Issue security levels
<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Configuring+Issue-level+Security>-
organised into security schemes, these allow the visibility of individual
issues to be adjusted, within the bounds of the project's permissions.
4. Comment visibility
<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Commenting+on+an+Issue> -
allows the visibility of individual comments (within an issue) to be
restricted.
5. Work-log visibility
<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Logging+Work+on+an+Issue> -
allows the visibility of individual work-log entries (within an issue) to
be restricted. Does not restrict visibility of progress bar on issue time
tracking.
Different Projects, Different Permissions
Permission schemes allow you to apply varying access levels to combinations
of groups, roles and individuals on a per-project basis. A permission
scheme will enable/disable specific actions for users for that project. For
example, the 'Browse Project' permission for a particular project restricts
who can view the project in JIRA and thus view issues that belong to that
project via the Issue Navigator. Without this permission, user(s) would not
be able to access ('browse') that project.
You could have permission schemes applied per project that give certain
customer groups or roles access only to the project (via the 'Browse
Project' permission) that pertains to them, while giving the internal
groups or roles all permissions across multiple projects. See Managing
Project Permissions <http://confluence.atlassian.com/x/ZAISCw> for further
details.
Reusable Permission Schemes: Using Project Roles (default and recommended)
Each project has Project Roles associated with it: Project Lead,
Administrators, Developers, and Users. As you define your Permission
Scheme, you can assign permissions in your Permission Scheme to a Project
Role (e.g. Project Role (Users)). When you select the Permission Scheme for
a project, JIRA will grant the permissions specified in the scheme to the
specific users/groups that you've defined in the Project Roles for your
project.
This allows you to reuse the same Permission Scheme for different projects
that have the same security needs, but different groups. You then select
the same Permission Scheme for the Project, but Manage Project Role
Membership
<http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/JIRA/Managing+Project+Role+Membership>
to substitute different users/groups. Sharing a Permission Scheme also
facilitates the creation of Administrator groups across the projects
