The ISMS Hub at a glance

Purpose

The ISMS Hub is the app’s central user interface. It exists as an identical app page in Jira and in Confluence, plus a full-screen view. The classic Jira project view remains fully usable alongside it — the hub does not replace it, it bundles it.

How to open the hub

In Jira, open the Apps menu and choose ISMS with Jira & Confluence. (The menu entry is always in English — Atlassian does not translate app menu entries; the app interface itself appears in the configured content language.)
Alternatively in Confluence: Apps menu → ISMS with Jira & Confluence. There, Confluence additionally renders its own page title above the app — that is normal.
The footer link Open in full screen ↗ at the bottom of the sidebar opens the hub as a full-screen page without the Jira/Confluence frame.

ISMS Hub in full screen: sidebar with work areas, topbar and dashboard with key figures, SoA ring and risk matrix — ISMS Hub: full-screen view with sidebar, topbar and the dashboard (“ISMS team” tab).

Interface layout

The sidebar sits on the left; at the top of every view is the topbar with the search field “🔎 Search the ISMS (items, documents)…”, the + New ISMS item button (appears once the ISMS project is installed) and, at the far right, the round Open ISMS Agent button (appears only if Rovo is enabled on your site). The sidebar can be collapsed with «.

Dashboard	The overall picture (see below).	everyone

Reports	Generate the risk report, management review and SoA as Confluence pages (Generating reports).	everyone (generating: administrators only)
Setup & Configuration	Installation and all base settings (Initial setup).	administrators only

At the very bottom of the sidebar you find the direct links Open ISMS project ↗, the jump to the same app page in the other product (Go to Confluence app page ↗ respectively Go to Jira app page ↗), Open in full screen ↗, and the currently configured language as a chip (DE / EN).

Note: a “Dev Tools” entry exists only in development and test environments and is hidden in your production environment.

The dashboard

The dashboard bundles the overall state of your ISMS. Depending on your role, the view tabs My view, ISMS team and Top management are available at the top. Building blocks:

Key figures per work area — with a red counter when something needs attention
Statement of Applicability — progress ring over the classification state of the requirements
Risk matrix (current and target) over likelihood and impact, including the still unassessed risks
Top risks and Risk trend
Review cycle — traffic light over overdue, due-within-30-days and on-track reviews
Action center — overdue measures, overdue nonconformities, unassessed risks, items without an owner and setup gaps
My work, Recent activity and a bar for quickly creating new issues

Search and quick create

Search: from two characters on, the search field scans the ISMS issues (full text) and the titles of controlled documents. Clicking a hit opens the detail view in the hub or the Confluence page. Full text inside documents is covered by Confluence search or the ISMS Agent.
Create: + New ISMS item opens the type picker “Create a new ISMS item” with a search field and recently used types, grouped by work area. Selecting a type opens the create dialog directly.

Hub search field with the query “Policy” and a hit list from Requirements Management with issue keys and statuses — Hub search: hits for the query “Policy” from Requirements Management with issue key, title and status; full text inside documents via Confluence search or the ISMS Agent.

Type picker “Create a new ISMS item” with search field “Search issue types…” and issue types grouped by work area — ISMS Hub: type picker “Create a new ISMS item” with the search field “Search issue types…” and issue types grouped by work area.

Item detail view

From lists and search you reach the control detail view with the sections Purpose & description, Responsibilities, Review & fulfilment and Linked items, plus the links Open in Jira and ← Dashboard. The Rovo button Explain this control explains the open item (Using the ISMS Agent (Rovo)).

Detail view of control A.5.1 with RACI responsibilities, review & fulfilment (80 %) and two linked items — Control detail view: “Responsibilities” (RACI), “Review & fulfilment” with fulfilment level and SoA applicability, plus “Linked items”.

Relationship Explorer focused on “CRM-Plattform”: graph of 5 nodes and 4 relationships with legend — Relationship Explorer: dependencies between risks, assets, requirements and actions.
