Answer: Discretionary Access Control (DAC)

The question describes a policy where each object has a unique owner who can grant access to that object. This aligns with Discretionary Access Control (DAC), where access rights are determined by the object owner. In Snowflake, the access control framework follows DAC principles, where object owners have the authority to grant privileges on their objects. The community discussion confirms this with 100% consensus on answer B, and the referenced Snowflake documentation supports this interpretation. Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) focuses on roles rather than object ownership, Mandatory Access Control (MAC) uses system-enforced policies not owner discretion, and Rule-Based Access Control (RuBAC) applies rules across the system rather than owner-based grants.
