Abstract
According to one embodiment, a system comprises one or more processors coupled to a memory. The one or more processors when executing logic encoded in the memory provide a topology manager. The topology manager is configured to maintain a security topology of a plurality of hosts. The security topology associates one or more virtual hosts policies with a plurality of virtual hosts in a cloud computing deployment. The topology manager is also configured to request a query for one or more hosts that are candidates to be enforced. A portability manager is configured to receive a request to deploy an access control agent on the one or more candidate hosts, determine an optimal agent to be deployed from a list of available agents, and deploy the optimal agent on the one or more candidate hosts.
