IAM challenges in Snowflake

Since exploding onto the scene in 2012, Snowflake has been in the news for a variety reasons, with the most infamous event publicizing just how complex IAM is for its customers. Determining what your user base has access to in Snowflake requires a complex combination of SQL queries, which unless you're one of the data engineers who lives and breaths it, makes it a significant challenge to gain the visibility you need.

Trustle for Snowflake

Unused privileges

When you connect Trustle to your Snowflake instance, in as little as 30 minutes, you’ll be shown all of the permissions your users currently hold and whether they’ve used these permissions in the past 90 days. A marketing intern with access to your customer data? A former contractor granted a role with the permissions to delete a data warehouse? Find out if someone’s made these mistakes as soon as you connect Trustle.

Just-in-time (JIT) access

Users looking for quick access in Snowflake can request exactly the role they need to join for the length of time you permit. They don’t even need to leave Slack or Microsoft Teams to do so.

Joiners, movers, and leavers

Quickly get people the access they need when they join your organization, swap out their privileges when they move between projects, and automatically revoke all of their permissions when they leave the company.
