Snowflake Access Control
There is network access control for the ones making out of Snowflake. The users are restricted from account access to specific IP addresses thus maintaining the level of granularity of their system. It can quickly escalate in complexity as employees move from project to project, team to team and position to position if they are struggling with enterprise management. The security of Snowflakes can be understood by the fact that the users who do not own the secure views can’t view its definition via the SHOW VIEW command.

Secure views do not use optimizations which may expose the underlying data which can give users answers about data outside the view’s restrictions.
