In this chapter, we confirmed the value of system information and how to extract that information on live systems. Using the psutil library, we learned how to extract process information in an OS-agnostic manner. We also briefly touched on how to use the WMI API to obtain even more information from the Windows operating system. The code for this project can be downloaded from GitHub or Packt, as described in the Preface.
In the next chapter, we will learn how to process an Outlook archive .pst file with Python and create a listing of its contents.
