Communication user and API access

Hi expert,

We are an ISV partner of SAP S/4HANA. We will use OData APIs to Get/Post data from outside S4HC in our solution.
As far as we know now, only communication users can access APIs. We can only use basic auth for integration currently since some of the endpoints are not supported by Oauth2.0.

Our question is, can we have to ask our customer to configure one communication user in their system and use this user for integration if they want to use our solution? Are there any ways to use CB users to access API for integration? Can we set access permissions for communication user? If not, aren't this put a customer at the risk of exposing their data to others if someone have the access of this communication user? Thanks.
