Summary
In Jira Data Center, you can find when users last changed their password by querying Jira's database.
Solution
The easiest way to get information for users in Jira that have set their password is from the cwd_user_attributes table.
You can run the following SQL query against Jira's database to retrieve details for all users:
SELECT cu.user_name, cua.attribute_name, to_timestamp(CAST(cua.attribute_value as bigint)/1000) as "passwordLastChanged"
FROM cwd_user_attributes cua
INNER JOIN cwd_user cu
ON cua.user_id = cu.id
WHERE cua.attribute_name = 'passwordLastChanged';
