Information

The information system _IS_ configured to block standard users from executing privileged functions.

Privileged functions include disabling, circumventing, or altering implemented security safeguards and countermeasures.

The inherent configuration of the macOS does not allow for non-privileged users to be able to execute functions requiring privilege.
