Detailed Description

An Oval_object instance describes a set of items to look for on an instrumented host platform.

A simple object will usually result in a single file, process, etc being identified. But through the use pattern matches, sets, and variables, multiple matching objects can be identified. Therefore an OVAL Object can identify a set of many individual items on a system. This set of items defined by the OVAL Object can then be used by an OVAL Test and compared against an OVAL State.
