SnowPro Core Certification — Question 1253

What type of policy states that each object within Snowflake has a unique owner who can grant access to that object?

Answer options

• A. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
• B. Discretionary Access Control (DAC)
• C. Mandatory Access Control (MAC)
• D. Rule-Based Access Control (RuBAC)

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Discretionary Access Control (DAC), as it allows the owner of an object to control who can access it. In contrast, Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) assigns permissions based on roles rather than individual ownership, while Mandatory Access Control (MAC) enforces access policies set by a central authority, and Rule-Based Access Control (RuBAC) relies on predefined rules rather than ownership.
