It is definitely proactive.

Not if there is nothing to PREVENT a rogue administrator from giving himself or herself, or some "strawman" user, the authority in question. Not "log it for the auditors if it happens," not even "alert the auditors immediately if it happens"; PREVENT.

Without active prevention, it still sounds to me like "security theatre." The same kind of "security theatre" that, in airline passenger screening, made the World Trade Center Atrocities possible.
