Methods and systems are described herein for dynamically applying a security policy based on one or more tag attributes. The method comprises receiving, at a network controller, information about an instance of a cloud workload instantiated at a cloud provider. The cloud workload is associated with a tag attribute. The method further comprises querying the cloud provider for at least one IP address associated with the tag attribute and learning the at least one IP address associated with the tag attribute, including the IP address for the instance of the cloud workload. The method further comprises associating a security policy with the at least one IP address associated with the tag attribute and propagating the security policy to at least one edge router for implementation.
A computer-implemented method of dynamically applying a policy based on tag attributes, comprising:
