Some systems allow code executed by a user to access all rights of that user, which is known as over-privileged code. Many scripting applications and even some of the operating systems provide too many privileges to the code. When a user executes the code, the system provides all the privileges to the code too as the user executed the code. This will make the user vulnerable to the malware that comes through emails, which may or may not be disguised.

Homogeneity:

We say that the systems are homogenous if all of them are running on the same operating system and are connected to the same network. With this kind of setup, if there is a worm in one computer, it can easily spread to all other computers on that network. The majorly used operating systems are Microsoft Windows and Mac OS. Concentrating on either one of them will give an opportunity to exploit a huge number of systems running them. A remedy for this is to use multiple operating systems on a network. Though this will reduce the risk of attacks, the costs would increase for the maintenance and training.
