Bulk Security for Passwords

Bulk Security lets you update security permissions for multiple passwords within an organization, saving you time from having to edit password permissions individually.

Scenario Organization Selecting Passwords Created in IT Glue Selecting Passwords Created in MyGlue Actions
1 IT Glue organization ✓ Add and remove IT Glue Group and Users permissions for passwords created in IT Glue
2 MyGlue-enabled organization ✓ Add and remove IT Glue and MyGlue Group and Users permissions for passwords created in IT Glue
3 MyGlue-enabled organization ✓ Add and remove IT Glue Group and Users permissions for passwords created in MyGlue
4 MyGlue-enabled organization ✓ ✓ Add and remove applicable IT Glue and MyGlue Group and Users permissions for passwords created in IT Glue and MyGlue

NOTE  Bulk security can be applied to passwords within an organization. It is currently unsupported on the Global Passwords page.
