at least one hardware processor configured to:
cause a target account in a target system of a cloud storage environment to authorize access privileges to an account on a scanning system via a cloud provider API to enable the scanning system to access a block storage volume of a workload maintained on the target account;
utilize the scanning system at a location of the block storage volume and on a secondary system other than the target system to scan the block storage volume for malicious code, wherein utilizing the scanner includes modifying a pre-utilized scanner at the location of the block storage volume based on information related to the target account to obtain a modified scanner, and utilizing the modified scanner;
