Protecting a content pack's data models / DAX from clients

$

Is it possible to publish a content pack that restricts the user from accessing the underlying data model and DAX?

 

I'm working on a project for a consultant who uses an Excel workbook as a desktop BI solution for their clients.  They are interested in using Power BI (as both a datasource and visualisation layer for that workbook) but want don't their clients to be able to access the underlying logic / intellectual property

 

They currently protect the Excel workbook using VBA that hides formulas and sheets.  Is there an equivalent way of protecting Power BI content packs? 

 

PS using SSAS Tabular would achieve the desired effect but alas that is not an option here

PPS if 100% secure isn't possible I'd be interested in 'sort of' secure options too
