It is compatible with Python 3.5+ and is tested on Windows only (obviously).

Setup

You may install the whole windows_tools package or any subpackage using the following commands

pip install windows_tools
pip install windows_tools.<subpackage>

Usage

antivirus

The antivirus package tries to list installed Antivirus products via the SecurityCenter API (using WMI calls). Since SecurityCenter API does not exist on Windows Servers, we also need to check for installed antivirus software using the uninstall registry keys. These checks are more fuzzy, but allow to detect the following products:

• avast
• avira
• avg technologies
• bitdefender
• dr web
• eset
• f-secure
• g data software
• kaspersky
• mcafee
• panda security
• sophos
• trend micro
• malwarebytes
• vipre
• sentinel one

On top of that list, it will detect any installed software containing "antivirus/antiviral/antimalware" in the name.

Please report back if your antivirus is not detected, so we can improve the fuzzy detection here.

Usage

import windows_tools.antivirus

result = windows_tools.antivirus.get_installed_antivirus_software()

result will contain a list of dict like

[{
        'name': 'Windows Defender',
        'version': None,
        'publisher': None,
        'enabled': False,
        'is_up_to_date': True,
        'type': 'Windows Defender / Security Essentials'
    }, {
        'name': 'Malwarebytes version 4.4.6.132',
        'version': '4.4.6.132',
        'publisher': 'Malwarebytes',
        'enabled': None,
        'is_up_to_date': None,
        'type': None
    }
]

Warning Keys enabled, is_up_to_date and type are only filled via securityCenter API*. Keys version and publisher are only filled via installed software list. The only guaranteed filled key will always be name

bitlocker

Bitlocker can only work on NTFS or ReFS formatted disks. Bitlocker keys can only be retrieved on local disks.

Usage

import windows_tools.bitlocker

result = windows_tools.bitlocker.get_bitlocker_full_status()

result will contain a dict as follows containing raw strings from manage-bde windows tool:

{
	'C:': {
		'status': 'Chiffrement de lecteur BitLocker\xa0: outil de configuration version 10.0.19041\nCopyright (C) 2013 Microsoft Corporation.

		'protectors': None
	},
	'D:': {

		'protectors': 'Chiffrement de lecteur BitLocker\xa0: outil de configuration version 10.0.19041\nCopyright (C) 2013 Microsoft Corporation. Tous droits réservés.\n\nVolume D: [Étiquette inconnue]\nTous les protecteurs de clés\n\n    Password :\n      ID : {SOMEPASS-WORD-ICAN-NNOT-REMEMBERWELL}\n\n    Mot de passe numérique :\n      ID : {SOMEPASS-GUID-ICAN-NNOT-REMEMBERWELL}\n\n'
	}
}

You may parse those or simply pretty print since print will not interpret special characters from a dict or multiple variables at once:

result = windows_tools.bitlocker.get_bitlocker_full_status()


result = get_bitlocker_full_status()
for drive in result:
    for designation, content in result[drive].items():
        print(designation, content)

Warning bitlocker needs to be run as admin. Running as non administrator will produce the following logs

Don't have permission to get bitlocker drive status for C:.
Don't have permission to get bitlocker drive protectors for C:.
Don't have permission to get bitlocker drive status for D:.
Don't have permission to get bitlocker drive protectors for D:.

Output shall be

{
    'C:': {
        'status': None,
        'protectors': None
    },
    'D:': {
        'status': None,
        'protectors': None
    }
}
