Easy. Risk.
Where does the magical privilege end? Who is responsible when the all-seeing CEO is compromised personally and data or cash is exfiltrated?
A common fraud committed against public institutions like school districts or small businesses is compromise of a business manager’s account, which allows an attacker to empty the checking account.
In a public company, that sort of fraud for finance is mostly controlled by regulatory compliance. But as we know, information or data has value. Value as a commodity, value as a competitive advantage, etc.
