Snowflake Security

Security was baked into Snowflake's data cloud from the start and most of our many security features are core to Snowflake. So you can focus on analyzing your data, not protecting it. Snowflake provides industry-leading features that ensure a high level of security for your account and users, as well as all the data you have in Snowflake Security.

The following headings provide a high-level summary of the features, grouped into the following categories.

Network or site access:

  • The site access is controlled through IP allow and it blocks lists, managed through network policies.
  • The private communication between the Snowflake and your other VPCs through AWS PrivateLink.
  • The private communication between the Snowflake and your other VNets through Azure Private Link.

User & Group Administration:

  • SCIM to manage user identities and groups like roles.

Account or User Authentication:

  • The Key Pair Authentication and the Key Pair Rotation for increased security with client authentication.
  • The MFA (multi-factor authentication) for the increased security for account access by users.
  • OAuth for the authorized account access without sharing or storing user login credentials.
  • Support for the user SSO (single sign-on) through federated authentication.
  • The Key-Pair Authentication is an alternative to the basic authentication (i.e., username and password) and key-pair rotation to support multiple active keys.

Object security:

  • It controlled access to all the objects in the account (e.g., users, warehouses, databases, tables) through a hybrid model of DAC (discretionary access control) and RBAC (role-based access control).

Data security:

  • All the data automatically encrypted (using the AES 256 strong encryption).
  • All the files stored in different stages (for data loading or unloading) automatically encrypted (using either AES 128 standard or 256 strong encryption).
  • Periodic rekeying of encrypted data.
  • It also supports encrypting data using customer-managed keys.
  • Support for masking the column data in tables and views using column-level Security.

Security validations:

  • The Soc 1 Type II compliance.
  • The Soc 2 Type II compliance.
  • Support for HIPAA compliance.
  • PCI DSS compliance.
  • HITRUST CSF compliance (see supported regions).

Snowflake’s access control approach combines aspects from both of the models, including Discretionary Access Control (DAC) and Snowflake RBAC (Role-based Access Control).

Roles:

Characters are entities that can be granted privileges and revoked on protected items. Customers are assigned roles so that they can perform the tasks necessary for business functions in their organization. Multiple roles can be assigned to the user. This allows users to change roles (ie, choose which role is active in the current Snowflake session) to perform different actions using different sets of privileges.

The character can also be assigned to other characters, creating a hierarchy of characters. The privileges associated with a character are inherited, which are higher than that character in the rankings.

Snowflake accounts have very few system-defined roles. Users with appropriate access can change the default roles from the system and create custom roles.
