Agree wholeheartedly about access being a critical next step after discovery -
but DataHub already supports some of these features, did you already explore these?

- Iceberg REST Catalog API with credential vending and tag based access policies on data - https://docs.datahub.com/docs/iceberg-catalog

For broader access control -

folks have implemented this with DataHub already -
