# Bulk edit in the Security Exposure Management Workspace

# Bulk edit in the Security Exposure Management Workspace {#ariaid-title1}

Release version: Australia  
Updated March 12, 2026  
![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
In the Security Exposure Management Workspace, the bulk edit feature enables you to update multiple findings simultaneously, streamlining the management and remediation process.

With bulk edit, you can select multiple vulnerabilities and apply consistent changes, such as assigning remediation owners, updating status, adding work notes, requesting exceptions, requesting false positive, and
modifying risk ratings. This saves time and effort by eliminating the need to edit the findings individually, promoting efficient and consistent management of vulnerabilities.

Roles required:  
You can perform the following tasks using the bulk edit feature in the Security Exposure Management Workspace:

* [Assign records to an assignment group in bulk](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/fEm9WOzNR9GERWJmrSjSMA "Assign multiple records (VITs, AVITs, CVITs, or TRs) concurrently to an assignment group using the bulk edit feature in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace.")
* [Request bulk exception in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/FrQxWrSlJMo6g0Fuc2z~EQ "Request an exception for multiple records (VITs, AVITs, CVITs or TRs) concurrently using the bulk edit feature instead of manually selecting each record.")
* [Bulk edit risk modification](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/f6JmRiwvkj5VrUkPA1MezA "Use bulk edit risk modification to request an adjusted risk rating, and optionally apply compensating controls, across multiple vulnerable items that share a single vulnerability.")
* [Remove assignments for host vulnerable items in bulk](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/aH~IAKCKZaRihAW8wK1RFw "Remove yourself or your groups from the  Assigned to  and  Assignment group  fields on host vulnerable items (VITs) or remediation tasks (VUL) if you determine that the records aren’t within your scope for remediation, or if you think that records have been incorrectly assigned to you or to your groups.")
* [Bulk edit for false positive in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/x~p_g0PPce1XvDT_s6bO8g "Mark one or more records (VITs, AVITs, CVITs, or TRs) as false positive concurrently using the bulk edit feature from the Vulnerability Manager Workspace instead of manually selecting each item.")
* [Close records in bulk in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/QZDXxNUHn5Ny~f2bq3fIUQ "Close multiple records (VITs, AVITs, or CVITs) concurrently using the bulk edit feature in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace.")
