		<summary type="html">&lt;p&gt;Created page with &amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Privileges&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are permissions that a process can have on an OpenVMS system to access system objects and resources.

&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Privileges&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; are permissions that a process can have on an OpenVMS system to access system objects and resources. Privileges are stored in each user&amp;#039;s [[User record|user record]] in the [[SYSUAF]] file.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Types of process privileges=&lt;br /&gt;
A process can have default and authorized privileges. Default privileges are granted as soon as the user logs in and can be used immegiately. Authorized privileges need to be enabled with the SET PROCESS/PRIVILEGE command.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=Categories of privilege=&lt;br /&gt;
Privileges are divided into the following seven categories according to the damage that the user possessing them could cause the system:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* None: No privileges&lt;br /&gt;
* [[NORMAL privileges|Normal]]: Minimum privileges to effectively use the system&lt;br /&gt;
* [[GROUP privileges|Group]]: Potential to interfere with members of the same group&lt;br /&gt;
* [[DEVOUR privileges|Devour]]: Potential to consume noncritical systemwide resources&lt;br /&gt;
* [[SYSTEM privileges|System]]: Potential to interfere with normal system operation&lt;br /&gt;
* [[OBJECT privileges|Object]]: Potential to compromise object security&lt;br /&gt;
* [[ALL privileges|All]]: Potential to control the system&lt;/div&gt;</summary>
