To enable PingDataGovernance Server to listen on privileged ports as a non-root user, grant capabilities to specific commands.
Linux systems provide capabilities that grant specific commands the ability to complete tasks that are normally permitted only by a root account. Instead of granting an ability to a specific user, capabilities are granted to a specific command. For convenience, you might enable the server to listen on privileged ports while running as a non-root user.
