Snowflake policies

Snowflake has the following types of policies: 

• Column-based
• Row-based
• Tag-based

Each of these policy types can be created either in Protect or on Snowflake.

Data access rules created in Protect result in column-based policies on Snowflake. Column-based policies are applied directly to the columns on Snowflake.

Row filters in data access rules result in row-based policies on Snowflake. Row-based policies are applied to the tables on Snowflake.

Data protection standards created in Protect result in tag-based policies on Snowflake. The tags are subsequently applied to the columns on Snowflake.
