Privacy and Automation query

Does anyone know what the executable file authtrampoline is ? It's showing up under my privacy settings, under Automation - it has access granted to all my System Events.. I am having trouble finding what it is in the regular Apple discussions, etc...

It's actual file is located in System/Library/Frameworks/Security.framework/authtrampoline

Any help appreciated. thx!

It’s part of macOS, and is specifically part of macOS Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC) support.


TCC is used to control what data apps can access.
