Snowflake has launched Trust Center detection findings, a new security capability that goes beyond configuration-based compliance checks to surface near real-time anomalous activity signals. Unlike traditional violation findings that require scheduled scanner runs, detections are event-driven and cover suspicious logins, dormant user activity, privilege escalation, abnormal queries, and security policy changes. The feature consolidates security visibility in one place, reduces reliance on third-party monitoring tools, and includes an 'Open in Worksheet' deep-dive option. Webhook integration for SOC tool aggregation is in private preview. The new scanners are auto-enabled for customers with the Threat Intelligence Package and cost fewer than two Snowflake credits per day.
