NIST 800-171
3.1 ACCESS CONTROL
3.1.15
Authorize remote execution of privileged commands and remote access to security-relevant information.
A privileged command is a human-initiated (interactively or via a process operating on behalf of the human) command executed on a system involving the control monitoring or administration of the system including security functions and associated security-relevant information. Security-relevant information is any information within the system that can potentially impact the operation of security functions or the provision of security services in a manner that could result in failure to enforce the system security policy or maintain isolation of code and data. Privileged commands give individuals the ability to execute sensitive security-critical or security-relevant system functions. Controlling such access from remote locations helps to ensure that unauthorized individuals are not able to execute such commands freely with the potential to do serious or catastrophic damage to organizational systems. Note that the ability to affect the integrity of the system is considered security-relevant as that could enable the means to by-pass security functions although not directly impacting the function itself.
