SnowPro Core Certification — Question 1232

How does Snowflake use Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)?

Answer options

• A. MFA is an integrated feature powered by the Duo Security service.
• B. MFA is enabled by default for any user having the ACCOUNTADMIN role.
• C. An MFA login is designed to log in to Snowflake only through Snowsight.
• D. MFA is enabled by default for each user and does not require activation.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because Snowflake utilizes Duo Security as part of its MFA integration. Option B is incorrect as MFA is not automatically enabled for only the ACCOUNTADMIN role. Option C is wrong since MFA can be used for more than just logging into Snowsight, and option D is incorrect because MFA requires configuration and is not universally enabled by default for all users.
