A cloud-based data governance system includes a processing unit, a network adapter, and memory for storing data and code. The network adapter establishes a connection with a remote data storage system associated with a remote file system over a wide-area network (WAN). The code includes and event collection interface, a data governance service, and an enforcement service. The event collection interface is configured to capture an event from the remote data storage system. The event is indicative of a file system operation executed on a data object of the remote file system. The data governance service is configured to receive the event from the event collection interface and to process the event to determine whether the file system operation conflicts with a governance policy of the data governance system. The enforcement service executes a set of remediation actions, if the file system operation does conflict with the governance policy.
