Basic Solaris User Rights Profile

By default, the Basic Solaris User rights profile is assigned automatically to all users through the policy.conf file. This profile provides basic authorizations that are useful in normal operations. Note that the convenience that is offered by the Basic Solaris User rights profile must be balanced against site security requirements. Sites that need stricter security might prefer to remove this profile from the policy.conf file.
