In this session I will go through the security controls in snowflake as well as some of their limitations, along with hands-on walk-throughs of the permission structure of snowflake and how to set up column and row based access controls from within Snowflake. I will also discuss setting up monitoring of authentication and authorization for snowflake with a few useful tips.
Snowflake DB is an awesome Cloud Data Warehouse, used by a large number of organizations. However, even when your data warehouse comes "as a service", you need to configure it properly in terms of security, and understand its limitations. I will focus mainly on 3 topics which I find the most important:
- How to set up network access policies for Snowflake.
- How to set up data access controls for Snowflake.
- Where the logs and other metadata is, what you can find there, and how it can help you secure your Snowflake.
For each section I will also discuss the limitations.
