12. A computing system comprising:
at least one processor; and
memory storing instructions executable by the at least one processor, wherein the instructions, when executed, cause the computing system to:
detect a virtual network in a cloud environment;
implement a control plane configured to:
provision resources in the virtual network and to manage network access and routing; and
obtain a deployment script configured to deploy a sensor, the deployment script including an access permission configured to allow access by the control plane to the sensor and limit other accesses, other than by the control plane, to the sensor from outside the respective virtual network;
deploy the sensor in the virtual network,
wherein the sensor comprises an executable package deployed in the virtual network and configured to manage activities on resources in the virtual network based on commands received by the sensor from outside the virtual network;
generate an activity management task to be performed in the virtual network and to send a task command representing the activity management task to the sensor deployed in the virtual network; and
receive an execution result representing execution of the activity management task by the sensor deployed in the virtual network.
