Least Privilege
Grant the least privilege necessary for user accounts and software to perform tasks. For example,
sudo
can be implemented to limit authorization to super user accounts on the system only to designated personnel. Another example is to limit logins on server systems to only those administrators who need to log into them in order to perform administration tasks.
