Adobe Experience Manager (AEM) AD0-E121 Practice Test

Understanding least privilege in AEM means giving users only the access they need to do their jobs. Administrative privileges provide broad, system-wide control—configuring settings, managing users and security, and overseeing the whole environment. That level of access is exactly why the administrators group isn’t suitable for minimal rights. The other groups are designed for more limited duties: content-authors focus on creating and editing content, contributors have lighter editing rights, and workflow-administrators handle workflow tasks without full system access. So the group that would grant administrative privileges is the administrators group, which is why it should not be used for minimal rights.
