A privileged user has few better benefits over other uses. Any system's privileged user has significantly more potential in that system and these potentials are larger than those allotted to most of the other users. This privileged user's accounts are more prone to be hacked. Their accounts are slightly overlooked which expose them to big risks. It’s very simple for hackers to access these attack points for intensifying privileged access into the institution. System administrator itself uses the account of privilege to make changes with different other applications and databases. These accounts are also used to correspond with other services of the web and are at risk of being manipulated by the intruders.
