SnowPro Core Certification — Question 499

At which point is data encrypted when using a PUT command?

Answer options

• A. When it reaches the virtual warehouse
• B. When it gets micro-partitioned
• C. Before it is sent from the user's machine
• D. After it reaches the internal stage

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C because data encryption occurs before the data is transmitted from the user's machine, ensuring that sensitive information is protected during transit. The other options are incorrect as they suggest points in the process where encryption does not take place, such as after the data has been sent or received.
