Because your application uses Apple's accessibility API to monitor or control 
other running applications on the computer. Apple considers this a security 
risk and requires user authentication by hand in System Preferences. It can no 
longer be done programmatically in Mavericks, I believe, or Yosemite. The 
requirements have been made more strict in recent versions of OS X. You can 
read about it in the AppKit release notes, I believe. Also, search for 
"accessibility" in Xcode's documentation window.
