Can I synchronize an instance from behind an enterprise firewall?

Question

I want to synchronize between Jira instances, but they can't communicate directly via http(s) because of my enterprise firewall's strict settings.

Can I still configure a synchronization?

Answer

Yes, that's not a problem. You can use Backbone's distributed configuration to set up a synchronization via file exchange or email.

Backbone natively supports PGP encryption for files and emails.
