Hi @shashankupa ,
After working in a highly secured setting (like elevated roles such as security_admin), you can return to the normal admin security level by de-elevating your roles. In ServiceNow, this is done by clicking your user profile → Elevate Roles → uncheck security_admin (or just wait for the elevation to time out). This reverts you back to your standard admin rights.
If you find my answer useful, accept it as solution and mark it helpful.

Go to profile -> Elevate Role -> uncheck security_admin -> Update
Another way is to log out of session and login again [exam type question]
