1. A method for improving vulnerability detection utilizing agentless generation of a software bill of materials (SBOM) in a computing environment, comprising:
generating an inspectable disk based on a disk deployed in a computing environment;
inspecting the inspectable disk for a software component;
inspecting the inspectable disk further for a cybersecurity object;
detecting the software component in the inspectable disk;
generating an SBOM based on the detected software component;
storing the SBOM in a database;
periodically querying a vulnerability database to detect an entry including a software identifier;
querying the database storing the SBOM based on software identifier; and
initiating a mitigation action based on a result of querying the database.
