Abstract
A system and method for detecting a vulnerable workload deployed in a cloud environment based on a code object of an infrastructure as code file utilizes a security graph. The method includes: extracting the code object from a state file, which includes a mapping between the code object to a first deployed workload and a second deployed workload; generating a node representing the code object in the security graph; generating a connection in the security graph between the node representing the code object and a node representing the first workload and a connection between the node representing the code object and a node representing the second workload; and determining that the second workload is a vulnerable workload, in response to detecting that the first workload node is associated with a cybersecurity threat, and that the nodes representing the workloads are each connected to the node representing the code object.
