Hi Ken,

Yes, you can create JIRAs based on the content of the defects. Disclosure is 
up to the projects (us) - Coverity hides it so we have a chance to fix any 
security issues before the public gets a look at the reported defect. Fixed 
defects should be noted as such in Coverity, so it would be good to keep the 
CID in the JIRA as well.
