Parsing WMI AntiVirusProduct productState from \\.\root\SecurityCenter2
To parse the productState
property from the AntiVirusProduct
class in the \\.\root\SecurityCenter2
namespace using WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation), you can use PowerShell. Here's an example:
powershell# Connect to WMI namespace
$wmiNamespace = "\\.\root\SecurityCenter2"
$wmiScope = New-Object -ComObject "WbemScripting.SWbemLocator".ConnectServer($wmiNamespace)
# Query the AntiVirusProduct class
$antivirusQuery = "SELECT * FROM AntiVirusProduct"
$antivirusProducts = $wmiScope.ExecQuery($antivirusQuery)
# Iterate over the antivirus products
foreach ($antivirusProduct in $antivirusProducts) {
$displayName = $antivirusProduct.displayName
$productState = $antivirusProduct.productState
# Parse the product state
$productActive = $productState -band 0x00000001
$productUpToDate = $productState -band 0x00000002
Write-Host "Antivirus Product: $displayName"
Write-Host "Product State:"
Write-Host " Active: $productActive"
Write-Host " Up-to-date: $productUpToDate"
Write-Host ""
}
In this example, the script connects to the \\.\root\SecurityCenter2
namespace using the WbemScripting.SWbemLocator
object. It then executes a query to retrieve the antivirus products from the AntiVirusProduct
class.
For each antivirus product, it retrieves the displayName
and productState
properties. The productState
is a bitmask value that contains information about the product's state. In this example, we parse the productState
using bitwise operations to determine if the product is active ($productActive
) and up-to-date ($productUpToDate
).
You can modify the script to suit your specific requirements, such as filtering the antivirus products based on certain criteria or performing additional operations on the retrieved data.
Please note that the availability and behavior of the AntiVirusProduct
class in the \\.\root\SecurityCenter2
namespace can vary across different Windows versions and configurations. Make sure to test the script on your target systems and adapt it as needed.
