Application security is a critical aspect of all application design and architecture. Security best practices specify that nobody should be given universal access to any system or service. Instead, a given service, system, or person should be given only the access required to get the job done, and absolutely no more permissions than that. To give someone more access than they absolutely need is to open a potential security vulnerability.
This security best practice is known as the Principle of Least Privilege.
This is Tech Tapas Tuesday, on Modern Digital Business.
