Default Protecting Multiple Worksheets at the same time

Is there a way to protect multiple worksheets at the same time, instead of
having to protect each worksheet one-by-one. Selecting 'Protect Workbook'
does not do the same thing as 'Protect Worksheet'. I want it so that no
cells can be modified on any worksheet. I tried Grouping the Worksheets, but
then 'Protect Worksheet' is no longer available.

Not that I know of. But you could do this with a VBA routine.
Something like this (untested) would protect all of the worksheets in
the active workbook.
Sub foo()
Dim ws As Worksheet
For Each ws In ActiveWorkbook.Worksheets
ws.Protect DrawingObjects:=True, Contents:=True,
Scenarios:=True
End With
End Sub
