Role-based access control (RBAC) that enforces the principle of least privilege restricts each user's permissions to the minimum required for their job duties. This minimizes the attack surface and reduces the likelihood and impact of unauthorized access. Granting broad or shared privileges, disabling multifactor authentication, or using generic accounts all increase risk because they violate least-privilege principles.
