QuestionQ103

Secure Data Sharing and Consumption

An Architect is assisting an Internet Protocol Security (IPsec) team with managing the user identities that will be used to establish an additional Snowflake environment. The Architect recommended implementing a corporate-wide user identity management system.

How can the impact of the new Snowflake environment be MINIMIZED?

Explanation

Federated authentication lets the corporate Identity Provider authenticate users for Snowflake, while user provisioning synchronizes user lifecycle information from that centralized identity system to Snowflake. Snowflake supports SAML2 security integrations for federated authentication and SCIM security integrations for IdP-driven provisioning, avoiding separate Snowflake-managed identities and reducing administrative overhead.
