Building a Windows Process Inspector in Modern C++
Modern Windows systems expose extensive runtime information — processes, threads, memory regions, modules, and security tokens.
We built WinProcessInspector to explore and understand these internals through a clean, layered C++ architecture.

Project Goal
WinProcessInspector was designed to:
- Enumerate live processes and threads
- Inspect virtual memory regions and protection flags
- List loaded modules and base addresses
- Analyze access tokens and integrity levels
- Monitor CPU, memory, and I/O usage
The objective was not to replicate existing tools, but to build a disciplined systems-level implementation from scratch.
