DataSunrise Database Activity Monitoring for Snowflake

The Snowflake Database Activity Monitoring tool included in DataSunrise Database Security Suite constantly monitors all database traffic and queries made to the Snoflake database. Continuous and real-time monitoring helps to separate safe and usual queries from suspicious and unwanted ones. Snowflake Activity Monitoring can help to detect SQL injections, suspicious access requests and non-typical operations of database users. Introduction of Snowflake Activity Monitoring ensures transparency of all Snowflake database operations without interfering into business processes and placing any additional load on servers.

By ensuring continuous tracking of all database activity the Snowflake Database Activity Monitoring tool gives an exact picture of all what is happening in the database. Database security personnel always have access to information on who and how viewed or even changed information. This approach helps to discover and disrupt hacker attacks, fraudulent insider activity and other suspicious operations.

Snowflake Activity Monitoring is done through highly adjustable monitoring rules. If any of these rules is violated, alert messages are immediately sent to the database security team. These messages contain detailed information on what has happened, when, and where. This saves a lot of time, as the security team doesn’t have to look through all operation logs. As a result, all hacking attempts are blocked.

Snowflake Database Activity Monitoring serves as a very convenient tool for investigating cyber crimes and frauds. The resulting database monitoring logs can’t be edited or somehow modified as they are automatically sent to the outsourced database of your choice. The collected information contains the following:

• Codes of SQL queries, data responses to queries;
• Session data of Snowflake database users;
• Client applications used to query the database, IP addresses, hostnames;
• Configuration changes (security rule update, database errors, authorization attempts, etc.).
