Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

Masking policies in Snowflake are designed to protect sensitive information by dynamically hiding or obfuscating data based on the role of the user executing the query. This helps enforce data privacy and security by allowing only authorized users to see sensitive information. Masking policies do not encrypt data but apply rules to limit data visibility, ensuring sensitive data is protected during query execution without altering the underlying data.
