Abstract
A system and method for performing active inspection of a computing environment utilizes optical character recognition. The method includes: receiving at least one network path to access a first resource, where the first resource is a cloud object deployed in the cloud computing environment, potentially accessible from a network which is external to the cloud computing environment; and generating a first instruction to access the first resource based on a plurality of reachability parameters designated in the at least one network path; causing execution of the generated first instruction to access the first resource; receiving a graphical output, the graphical output generated in response to execution of the generated first instruction; performing optical character recognition on the graphical output to generate a textual output; detecting in the textual output a predetermined data indicator; and initiating a second active inspection in response to detecting the data indicator in the textual output.
