Executive Summary Preview

Snowflake, a major publicly traded cloud data analytics vendor, presents a moderate risk posture driven primarily by a significant, well-documented security breach that affected a large number of customer environments in 2024. The breach — attributed to credential-based attacks targeting customer accounts lacking multi-factor authentication — resulted in data exposure across at least 165 customer organizations, including high-profile names, and led to criminal arrests.

Recommended Actions

  1. Verify MFA enforcement for your Snowflake tenancy immediately: log into your Snowflake account, navigate to Admin > Security, and confirm that multi-factor authentication is required for all users — particularly those with access to medium-sensitivity datasets. Snowflake's documentation at docs.snowflake.com covers MFA policy enforcement steps.
  2. Request Snowflake's current SOC 2 Type II report directly from your Snowflake account representative or their security team. Many enterprise vendors publish reports via NDA on their trust portal — check trust.snowflake.com and ask your account contact for the most recent audit report covering the period after the 2024 breach remediation.
  3. Navigate directly to trust.snowflake.com/subprocessors to manually review the full list of Snowflake's data subprocessors. Evaluate each against your organization's data residency requirements and GDPR Article 28 obligations, particularly for any EU-based data processing.

Frequently asked about Snowflake

Is Snowflake safe to use as a vendor?+
Snowflake can be evaluated for vendor safety by checking sanctions databases (OFAC, EU, UN), verifying business registration through legal entity registries like GLEIF, scanning for adverse media coverage including data breaches and regulatory actions, and assessing domain security and cyber risk posture. ThirdProof automates this entire investigation across 24 intelligence sources and produces a deterministic risk tier (1-5 scale) with a confidence score. Run a free investigation to see Snowflake's full risk profile.
Does Snowflake have SOC 2 certification?+
To verify whether Snowflake holds SOC 2 certification, ThirdProof scans the vendor's trust page and security documentation for certification claims, then cross-references those claims against independent registries where available (such as the FedRAMP Marketplace for FedRAMP authorization). Certifications are classified as independently verified, vendor attested, or not found in evidence — ensuring you know the verification level of each claim.
Is Snowflake FedRAMP authorized?+
Based on ThirdProof's investigation, Snowflake holds FedRAMP authorization. Full details including authorization level and scope are available in the ThirdProof investigation report.
Has Snowflake had any data breaches?+
ThirdProof's adverse media analysis searches multiple news APIs and public records for data breaches, security incidents, lawsuits, regulatory enforcement actions, and financial distress signals involving Snowflake. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification. The investigation also checks SEC EDGAR for enforcement-related filings and FDIC records for financial institution failures, providing a comprehensive public record review.
Is Snowflake on any sanctions lists?+
ThirdProof screens Snowflake against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP (Politically Exposed Persons) databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives from similar names. If Snowflake or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers an automatic escalation to the highest risk tier. No sanctions match is confirmed through a clean screening report in the investigation output.
How do I assess Snowflake for vendor risk?+
ThirdProof investigates Snowflake autonomously in under 2 minutes using 24 intelligence sources — no questionnaires, no vendor participation required. The investigation covers sanctions screening, cyber risk scoring, business registration, adverse media, domain security, and more.
