System executables are stored in the following directories by default:
/bin
/usr/bin
/usr/local/bin
/sbin
/usr/sbin

Parameter:
[sys_exec_files_have_root_ownership/sys_exec_files_does_not_have_root_ownership]

System binaries are executed by privileged users as well as system services,
and restrictive permissions are necessary to ensure that their
execution of these programs cannot be co-opted.
