      Its called the principle of least privilege, or principle of minimal privilege, or principle of least authority.

      Its a philosophy learned by anyone who is serious about information assurance. Its a very basic, yet fundamental security concept.

          This is relevant to giving apps “root access”. How is that not relevant?
