Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

According to the Snowflake documentation1, stages without credentials are a way to create external stages that use storage integrations to access data files in cloud storage without providing any credentials to Snowflake. Storage integrations are objects that define a trust relationship between Snowflake and a cloud provider, allowing Snowflake to authenticate and authorize access to the cloud storage. To limit data exfiltration after a storage integration and associated stages are created, the following account-level parameters can be set:

* REQUIRE_STORAGE_INTEGRATION_FOR_STAGE_CREATION: This parameter enforces that all external stages must be created using a storage integration. This prevents users from creating external stages with inline credentials or URLs that point to unauthorized locations.

* REQUIRE_STORAGE_INTEGRATION_FOR_STAGE_OPERATION: This parameter enforces that all operations on external stages, such as PUT, GET, COPY, and LIST, must use a storage integration. This prevents users from performing operations on external stages with inline credentials or URLs that point to unauthorized locations.

* PREVENT_UNLOAD_TO_INLINE_URL: This parameter prevents users from unloading data from Snowflake tables to inline URLs that do not use a storage integration. This prevents users from exporting data to unauthorized locations.

Therefore, the correct answer is option D, which sets all these parameters to true. Option A is incorrect because it sets PREVENT_UNLOAD_TO_INLINE_URL to false, which allows users to unload data to inline URLs that do not use a storage integration. Option B is incorrect because it sets both REQUIRE_STORAGE_INTEGRATION_FOR_STAGE_CREATION and REQUIRE_STORAGE_INTEGRATION_FOR_STAGE_OPERATION to false, which allows users to create and operate on external stages without using a storage integration. Option C is incorrect because it sets all the parameters to false, which does not enforce any restrictions on data exfiltration.

I thought ORGADMIN was also included, but I guess not!

Wait, can any role with CREATE NETWORK POLICY do it? Sounds too broad.

SYSADMIN, SECURITYADMIN, and ACCOUNTADMIN can create network policies.

I’m leaning towards ACCOUNTADMIN, SYSADMIN, and maybe the global permission role, but I’m not entirely confident about the last one.

I feel like any role with the global permission to create network policies could be correct, but I can't recall if it was specifically mentioned in our study materials.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think SECURITYADMIN was one of the options too.

I think SYSADMIN and ACCOUNTADMIN are definitely among the roles, but I'm not sure about the third one.

Oof, network policies in Snowflake - that's a topic I'm a bit fuzzy on. Let me re-read the question and options carefully to see if I can piece together the right answer.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know SYSADMIN and SECURITYADMIN have broad permissions, but I'm not sure if they specifically cover creating network policies. I'll have to think this through.

This looks like a straightforward question about Snowflake roles and network policies. I'll need to carefully review the options and think through which roles can create network policies.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is to identify the roles that have the necessary permissions to create network policies. I'll carefully consider each option and select the three that fit the bill.

I'm a bit confused on this one. The options seem to cover a range of different tools, and I'm not sure which one specifically handles the CCT configuration verification. I'll need to review my notes to see if I can narrow it down.

The key here is that Sam didn't verify the threat intelligence sources, even though the data was cheap. That's a classic mistake that can lead to unreliable information and put the organization at risk. I'd go with A as the answer.

Hmm, I'm not totally sure about this one. I'll have to think it through carefully. Maybe I should review my notes on external inputs and internal logical files.

I bet the exam writers were just trying to trip us up with that 'Any role that owns the database' option. Nice try, but I'm sticking with the classics!
