How to reset Jenkins security settings

Hi@akhtar,

You can change the security of your Jenkins from the configuration file. You can completely disable security from True to False in the /var/lib/jenkins/config.xml file.

<useSecurity>false</useSecurity>

After that, restart your Jenkins service.

$ systemctl restart jenkins
