Abstract
A system and method for agentless detection of network exposure of a software appliance is presented. The method includes detecting a software appliance in a cloud computing environment, wherein the software appliance includes an immutable preconfigured, self-contained software application; inspecting the software appliance for a proxy-type application; detecting network traffic associated with the software appliance; generating a network path based on the network traffic and a network identifier of a component of the cloud computing environment based on detecting the proxy-type application and an identifier of the component in the detected network traffic; actively inspecting the generated network path through an external network, wherein the external network is external to the cloud computing environment; determining that the network path exposes the component based on a result of actively inspecting the generated network path; and initiating a remediation action based on the result of the active inspection.
