I would make the point that no access control protects internal company
data. For one of many feasible real world examples:

A member of the organization is terminated who has the knowledge of the
location of the data. Despite the disabling or removal of that persons
accounts, that individual still has knowledge to easily access internal
company data.

I do not envy your task of attempting to explain this.

Good luck.
