The correct answer is C. Add User1 to the Client Admins group, and then configure User1 as the client push installation account. The Client Push installation account requires local administrator rights on target computers; least privilege means using a group that grants only local admin access rather than a higher-privileged account.
Question
You create a domain user named User1. The domain user are member of the local groups on each client computer as described in the following:
You plan to configure client Push installation. You need to configure the client push installation account. The solution must use the principle of least privilege. What should you do?
Exhibit
Options
- AConfigure User3 as the client Push installation account
- BSpecify User5 as the manager of the Clients OU, and then configure User5 as the client push
- CAdd User1 to the Client Admins group, and then configure User1 as the client push installation account
- DConfigure User1 as the client push installation account

Why each option
The Client Push installation account requires local administrator rights on target computers; least privilege means using a group that grants only local admin access rather than a higher-privileged account.
User3's group memberships are not described as providing the appropriate scope or least-privilege level needed for client push across the target client computers.
Specifying a user as OU manager grants AD delegation rights, not local administrator rights on client computers, which is the actual requirement for Client Push installation.
Adding User1 to the Client Admins group (a local administrators group on client computers) and then configuring User1 as the Client Push installation account satisfies the requirement by granting the minimum necessary privilege - local administrator rights on the clients - without elevating the account to domain admin or other broader roles. This follows the principle of least privilege while still meeting the technical requirement for client installation.
Configuring User1 directly without first adding them to the Client Admins group would mean User1 lacks the local administrator rights required for Client Push to succeed on the client computers.
