Prevent users from making copies of shared reports

We have organizational users who are creating copies of reports that have been shared with them through content packs. Is there a way to disable users from making these copies?

Hi there

As far as I know you would need to stop the users from consuming the content packs, and rather share the data via the new App experience.

With the new App Experience you can control who can only view the reports and who can create copies of the reports.
