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 deployed in a cloud computing environment, having access to an external network;
actively inspecting an external network path to determine if the network path of the reachable resource is accessible from the external network;
determining that the network path is a valid path, in response to determining that the reachable resource is accessible from the external network path;
applying a policy on the valid path; and
initiating a mitigation action, in response to determining that the policy is violated.
