Recommended Actions

  1. IMMEDIATE (within 7 days) — Enforce MFA on all Snowflake accounts: Log into your Snowflake Admin Console, navigate to Security > Authentication Policies, and confirm multi-factor authentication is mandatory for every user and service account. This directly addresses the attack vector exploited in the 2024 breach campaign.
  2. IMMEDIATE (within 14 days) — Verify TLS certificate renewal: Confirm with your Snowflake account manager that the snowflake.com certificate (expiring ~May 5, 2026) is being renewed. Re-check status at [SSL Labs](https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=snowflake.com) within two weeks.
  3. SHORT-TERM (within 30 days) — Obtain SOC 2 Type II report: Request Snowflake's current SOC 2 Type II report directly from their security team or via [trust.snowflake.com](https://trust.snowflake.com/). Confirm the report covers the current period and request a bridge letter if the most recent report is older than 6 months. This is required to close the SOC 2 audit chain for your own CC9.2 compliance.

The questionnaire is mapped to SIG, SOC 2, HIPAA, PCI DSS and 9 other frameworks — answered without sending Snowflake a single email or waiting for a vendor response.
Is Snowflake safe to use as a vendor?+

Does Snowflake have SOC 2 certification?+
No SOC 2 found. Snowflake rated High Risk — recent breach reported. See all 5 findings →
Has Snowflake had any data breaches?+
Data breach history is an important signal for any vendor, particularly data platforms like Snowflake that handle organizational and customer data. 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. Each finding is linked to its original source with severity classification.
Is Snowflake on any sanctions lists?+
Sanctions screening is standard due diligence for data vendors. ThirdProof screens Snowflake against OFAC SDN, consolidated international sanctions lists, and PEP databases. The screening uses entity name verification to reduce false positives. If Snowflake or any associated officers appear on a sanctions list, this triggers automatic escalation to the highest risk tier.
How do I assess Snowflake for vendor risk?+
Assessing Snowflake as a data vendor involves verifying SOC 2 Type II and data processing agreements compliance, reviewing their subprocessor chain, and checking sanctions exposure. ThirdProof automates this across 27 intelligence sources in an average of 7 minutes — no questionnaires or vendor participation required. Your first 5 investigations are free.
How long does a ThirdProof assessment take?+
A ThirdProof assessment completes in an average of 7 minutes. 27 intelligence sources are queried in parallel — sanctions databases, business registries, threat intelligence feeds, certificate transparency logs, and more. The result is a deterministic risk tier with confidence score and audit-ready PDF report.
Is ThirdProof free?+
ThirdProof offers 5 free vendor assessments with no credit card required. Each assessment includes the full report — risk tier, confidence score, individual findings, executive summary, and PDF export. Paid plans start at $399/month for teams that need ongoing vendor monitoring.
Can I use a ThirdProof report as SOC 2 audit evidence?+
Yes. ThirdProof reports are designed to satisfy SOC 2 CC9.2 (vendor risk management) requirements. Each report includes SHA-256 integrity verification, methodology disclosure, source attribution for every finding, and AI content labeling. Auditors can independently verify the report's authenticity and trace each finding to its original source.
How is ThirdProof different from a security questionnaire?+
Security questionnaires require vendor participation, take weeks, and produce self-reported answers. ThirdProof queries 27 independent intelligence sources — no vendor involvement needed. Risk tiers are assigned by a deterministic rules engine (not AI opinion), and every finding links to its original source. You get an audit-ready report in an average of 7 minutes instead of waiting weeks for a questionnaire response.

Snowflake is in your vendor stack. Can you prove you assessed them?

SOC 2 CC9.2, HIPAA, PCI-DSS, and CMMC all require documented vendor due diligence — not just knowing the answer, but having audit-ready evidence you verified it. Most compliance teams can't produce that documentation on demand.

Every investigation produces two deliverables: an audit-ready risk report and an auto-filled security questionnaire your prospects and auditors expect to see.
