Answers
D.
View the Users section in the Account tab in the Snowflake UI and review the last login column.
Suggested answer: B

Explanation:

This view can be used to query login attempts by Snowflake users within the last 365 days (1 year). It provides information such as the event timestamp, the user name, the client IP, the authentication method, the success or failure status, and the error code or message if the login attempt was unsuccessful.By querying this view, the IT Security team can identify any suspicious or malicious login attempts to Snowflake and take appropriate actions to prevent credential stuffing attacks1. The other options are not the best ways to find recent and ongoing login attempts to Snowflake.Option A is incorrect because the LOGIN_HISTORY Information Schema table function only returns login events within the last 7 days, which may not be sufficient to detect credential stuffing attacks that span a longer period of time2.Option C is incorrect because the History tab in the Snowflake UI only shows the queries executed by the current user or role, not the login events of other users or roles3. Option D is incorrect because the Users section in the Account tab in the Snowflake UI only shows the last login time for each user, not the details of the login attempts or the failures.
