Red team
A person or group whose assigned role is to actively attempt to find weaknesses in a system, document, or process by attacking it as an adversary would, rather than reviewing it for general quality. In a data governance context, a red team attacks a lineage map's evidence trail specifically, looking for claims trusted by position rather than proof.
