A company's administrators see that employees are installing unapproved software on their desktops, raising concerns about harmful applications. They want to reduce user privileges while preserving the ability to complete daily tasks. Which approach best addresses this requirement?
Create additional domain user accounts for staff that replicate enhanced access on endpoints
Provide a method that allows standard tasks to run with controlled rights while blocking unapproved software changes
Grant broad administrator privileges to user accounts to avoid permission errors
Activate a system that elevates appropriate processes run by a user account
Limiting daily rights while allowing an authorized process to escalate privileges upholds key principles of this management approach. It stops unwarranted applications from being installed yet maintains the ability to perform routine activities. Setting up automatically elevated processes for user accounts poses risks by granting unneeded rights. Granting broad rights to user accounts can weaken security. Creating domain accounts with enhanced privileges does not lessen endpoint threats.
