SnowPro Core Certification — Question 880

Which security feature is used to connect or log in to a Snowflake account?

Answer options

• A. Network policy
• B. SCIM
• C. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC)
• D. Key pair authentication

Correct answer: D

Explanation

Key pair authentication is a secure method that allows users to log in to their Snowflake accounts using cryptographic keys. The other options, while important for security, serve different purposes: Network policy restricts access based on IP addresses, SCIM manages user identities, and RBAC defines user permissions but does not handle login authentication.
