Why is the access mode of the usersync.log 600 ?

I built the hadoop cluster included the Ranger service with the Ambari.

When I checked the usersync.log, I needed the sudo command.

On the other hands, the logs for the ranger-admin allow anyone to read.

It's because of security. Usesysnc gets the information from AD/LDAP when we sync it with corporate AD.

I have the same.
