Use virtualization layers that provide real-time data access through views that enforce governance rules, masking sensitive information as needed without copying or moving data.

Allow unrestricted access to all data for users, relying on periodic audits to ensure they comply with governance policies post hoc.

Implement a governed data lakehouse approach, where users have access to curated and secured data zones appropriate for their roles, alongside self-service tools with embedded governance policies.

Establish a centralized data warehouse team responsible for creating and distributing all reports, severely limiting direct user access to data.
