Abstract
A system and method for evaluating definitions from a markup language document for agentless host configuration includes generating an inspectable disk based on a disk of a host, the host deployed in a virtualized computing environment. The system is configured to: receive a markup language document, the markup language document including a plurality of definitions, each definition including a data element; inspect the inspectable disk for a cybersecurity object corresponding to a first data element of a first definition of the plurality of definitions; evaluate the first definition further based on the cybersecurity object to generate an evaluated first definition result, in response to determining that the definition is evaluable; generate an output based on the evaluated first definition result; and generate the output based on a predetermined notification, in response to determining that the definition is unevaluable.
