 Description   

Our documentation guides our windows users to configure MongoDB to run as a local system account (equivalent of an admin permission on the machine).
http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/tutorial/install-mongodb-on-windows/

In order to maximize the machine security, we should run as NetworkService.

After a careful backlog refinement, the team decided to close this ticket because of its low priority and limited resource capacity. If you believe that this ticket requires additional attention from the team and should be re-opened, feel free to change the status to "Needs Scheduling" and ping me or @alexander.neben
