When people get root access and become the root user over the Android operating system, they usually do it by unlocking the bootloader, installing a custom recovery and then flashing the right SuperSU version from the custom recovery partition. Another way people get root access is by using a one-click rooting tool. There is a one-click rooting tool available out there that also installs the same kind of SuperSU program that you would have gotten on your device had you flashed it from the custom recovery and it is called the CF-Auto-Root tool.
