I think the real problem is not with the administrator.

The real problem is that an owner of client A can restore data from
client B only by knowing the TSM admin password. Think many customers
hooked up to the same TSM server.

And how often is that particular password changed in a lib/config
manager environment? Fair chance that it is "out there".
