Case Study: Atlassian protects customer sessions from hijacking with SpyCloud Session Identity Protection

Atlassian protects 38,000 accounts and saves 160 hours a month with SpyCloud

Atlassian, a leading provider of team collaboration software, faced the significant challenge of protecting its over 250,000 cloud customers from session hijacking attacks using stolen cookie data exfiltrated by malware. The company needed a scalable solution to identify these exposures and automatically invalidate compromised sessions to safeguard user accounts. To address this next-generation threat, Atlassian turned to SpyCloud and its Session Identity Protection service.

SpyCloud's solution provided automated workflows that integrated with Atlassian's existing tool stack, enabling the company to proactively invalidate stolen session cookies. The results were substantial: SpyCloud helped identify 8,500 customer organizations with exposed cookies, invalidate 41,000 authentication cookies, and protect 38,000 individual user accounts. This automation also saved Atlassian's security team an estimated 160 hours per month in repetitive detection and response work, allowing them to focus on other critical tasks.
