Snowflake Exam ADA-C01 Topic 1 Question 16 Discussion

Actual exam question for Snowflake's ADA-C01 exam
Question #: 16
Topic #: 1
[All ADA-C01 Questions]

A user has enrolled in Multi-factor Authentication (MFA) for connecting to Snowflake. The user informs the Snowflake Administrator that they lost their mobile phone the previous evening.

Which step should the Administrator take to allow the user to log in to the system, without revoking their MFA enrollment?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

The MINS_TO_BYPASS_MFA property allows the account administrator to temporarily disable MFA for a user who has lost their phone or changed their phone number1. The user can log in without MFA for the specified number of minutes, and then re-enroll in MFA using their new phone1. This does not revoke their MFA enrollment, unlike the DISABLE_MFA property, which cancels their enrollment and requires them to re-enroll from scratch1. The other options are not valid ways to bypass MFA, as SnowSQL does support MFA authentication2, and there is no such URL parameter as /?mode=mfa_bypass&code= for Snowflake3

Lost your phone and need to log in? Sounds like a job for the IT superhero, Option B: Disable MFA for 24 hours. Just don't forget to re-enable it when you're done, or the security goblins might get you!

Option C? You kidding me? Telling the user to use SnowSQL just because they lost their phone? That's like telling them to use a flip phone from the 90s. Come on, people, let's live in the 21st century here.

Oof, lost your phone? That's the worst. Option D sounds like a sneaky way to bypass MFA, but I don't know if I'd trust that. Probably best to go with the official route, even if it's a bit inconvenient.

I think the Administrator should alter the user and set MINS TO BYPASS MFA to disable MFA temporarily.

Disabling MFA completely for 24 hours? That's a bit excessive, isn't it? Option A seems more prudent - just tweak the bypass time to let the user log in for now.

Setting the MINS TO BYPASS MFA to a suitable value is a more secure approach than disabling MFA altogether.

Option B seems like the easiest way to get the user back in without revoking their MFA enrollment. 24 hours should be enough time to sort out the lost phone issue.

B) Alter the user and set DISABLE_MFA to true, which will suspend the MFA requirement for 24 hours.
