=== Privileges
Privileges model the rights that Users own on external applications.
Privileges are granted via <<roles, roles>> to Users.
[TIP]
The typical use case for privileges is to use Syncope as registry for available applications and privileges
that users can own on those; once done this, external tools can query Syncope about the privileges owned by given users.
