Just discovered G2, this question is 2 years old - however, I can't bear a question going unanswered ;-)

Snowflake encrypts all customer data by default, using the latest security standards, at no additional cost. Snowflake provides best-in-class key management, which is entirely transparent to customers.

For a comprehensive overview, see:
