Interactive Awareness Program for Confluence

Introduction

IAP

Confluence's low-cost learning management solution for security, privacy, and compliance trainings

A corporation must provide required IT security, privacy, data, and compliance awareness training. Vendors, however, offer training through their portal. Customers and staff must switch between the portal and URL simultaneously, else they run the danger of disregarding email invitations. There are just three learning management systems (LMS) made especially for trainings available in the Marketplace for Atlassian Cloud. We were driven to create a simple, low-cost Confluence software to satisfy a need for the employees of the Data Protection Officer (DPO), Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), and Compliance Officer to produce, communicate, and coordinate work across teams in one spot.

Three main features are provided by Unicis IAP:

  1. Offers an admin interface for creating training by category, adding information, and creating a quiz to assess the participant's understanding.
  2. Provides a list with the trainings that are available to the user and group, along with their status, required time, and success rates.
  3. Gives auditors a compliance report that details training status, average passed and failed scores, and other information.

Requirements

Unicis IAP is developed with Atlassian Forge platform. Hence, it can be only installed in Atlassian Confluence product. It requires read, write, manage and storage access to your Confluence account, because the IAP are stored in your Atlassian Cloud instance, and not shared with Unicis. Unfortunately, it can not be installed for Server and Data Jira set up.

Installation

During the installation you will be requested to grant access to third party, such as:
