Claim 0:
1. A method for applying a policy on a network path, comprising:
selecting a reachable resource having a network path to access the reachable resource, wherein the reachable resource is a cloud object deployed in a cloud computing environment, having access to an external network which is external to the cloud computing environment;
actively inspecting the network path to determine if the network path of the reachable resource is accessible from the external network;
storing an indicator to indicate that the network path is a valid path, in response to determining that the reachable resource is accessible from the external network;
applying a policy on the valid path, wherein the policy includes a conditional rule;
initiating a mitigation action, in response to determining that the conditional rule is not met; and
applying the policy on another network path, in response to determining that the conditional rule is met.
