I don’t know how easy it is to dump an entire environment, but the “gain access” part depends on the user and what roles they have. If these were highly privileged users, then yes, they could get a lot.
It could be mixed responsibility here. Possibly Snowflake should require MFA (do other cloud providers do this?) but their posture seems to be “we make it possible for anyone to sign up easily”. On the other hand if Ticketmaster had an admin account with access to entire production database which was not configured for MFA, that’s definitely on them too. On the third hand, if these were regular users that Ticketmaster did not restrict access for, that is also on them.
