Claim 13:
14. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a set of instructions for detecting lateral movement based on an exposed cryptographic network protocol (CNP) key in a cloud computing environment, the set of instructions comprising:
one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the device to:
inspect a first workload for a private CNP key, the private CNP key associated with a hash of a public CNP key;
detect in a security database a representation of the public CNP key;
detect in the security database a representation of a second workload connected to the representation of the private CNP key, wherein the representation of the second workload corresponds to a second workload which is an exposed workload; and
generate a lateral movement path, the lateral movement path including an identifier of a second workload, the second workload represented by a representation connected to the representation of the public CNP key.
