Abstract

A system and method for performing authorization based active inspection of network paths for a resource, deployed in a cloud computing environment, includes receiving at least one network path to access the resource, wherein the resource is a cloud object deployed in the cloud computing environment, and potentially accessible from a network which is external to the cloud computing environment; and actively inspecting the at least one network path to determine if the resource is accessible through the at least one network path from a network external to the cloud computing environment and requires access authorization.
