> ℹ️ [DECember 2023]  We have released an improved version of Security and Encryption for Confluence Cloud with enhanced security. Check out the [next steps for administrators](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/SECC/pages/477727589).

## Overview

<span style="color: #172b4d">When you create a Secret macro, it is automatically available as an entity for the whole space. </span>

<span style="color: #172b4d">In other words, Secret macros belong to a space, and the page that you added the secret to is just a "location" where it is available.</span>

When a secret is created, it is created as an entity for that specific space only.

> ℹ️ <span style="color: #172b4d">This means you can copy a secret to multiple pages </span><span style="color: #172b4d">*within a space*</span><span style="color: #172b4d">. </span>

> 📝 **Copying secrets to another space - **secrets cannot be copied to pages located  in other spaces, even if they reside on the same server.

## <span style="color: #172b4d">Steps</span>

Go to the page where the secret is located.
