Privileges overview

  • Privileges is an application that allows users to work as a standard user for day-to-day tasks, by providing a quick and easy way to request administrator rights. Users can set a timeframe in the application’s settings to perform specific tasks, such as installing or removing an application. To request admin rights, simply click on the Privileges icon in your Dock. Command line use is supported as well.
  • Working as standard user instead of an administrator adds another layer of security to your Mac and is considered a security best practice. We believe all users, including all developers, can benefit from using Privileges.

What’s new in version 2.5.0

  • This release of Privileges introduces a powerful system extension, designed to prevent unauthorized modifications, deactivation, or uninstallation of Privileges and its components. This is a major step forward in making Privileges even more secure.
