What term describes high-level permissions requiring strict justification?

• A. Excessive Access Rights
• B. Cost Justification
• C. Administrator Access
• D. Insufficient Access

Answer: (C)

High-level permissions are known as privileged or administrative access. Because these rights let someone make broad changes, access sensitive data, or control critical systems, they must be tightly controlled. Requiring strict justification for these privileges helps enforce least-privilege, need-to-know, and require-approval practices, and it supports monitoring and auditing through Privileged Access Management (PAM). So, the term that best describes these high-level permissions that require solid justification is administrator access.

Cost justification deals with budgeting, not access rights. Excessive access rights describes what results from granting too many permissions but isn’t the standard label for the privileges themselves. Insufficient access is the opposite of having high-level permissions.
