Snowflake Security Book
It all started when our CTO and our Chief Scientist were discussing a knowledge gap around security for Snowflake data cloud accounts. They wished there was a book to fill this gap, and lacking one, they decided to write one.
The book was published in October 2021, by Apress, and is sold on APress, O’Reilly Library, Amazon (as a physical copy or the Kindle version), as well as other book shops.
What Does the Book Cover?
- Setting up the Snowflake security model including roles and user provisioning with multi-factor authentication(MFA), open authorization (0Auth) and Single sign-on (SSO)
- Using advanced data access control including dynamic masking of sensitive PII, PHI or financial data as well as row, role and attribute-based security
- Monitoring access to sensitive data with full audit trail for regulatory compliance
“This book is an excellent resource for data engineers tasked with achieving the right balance between security and productivity for their Snowflake environment.”
