# vmdetect

A comprehensive toolkit for detecting virtual machine environments. Available as a cross-platform library (Python, C, C++) and command-line tool for Windows and Linux, it employs multiple techniques to reliably identify various virtualization platforms (e.g., VMware, VirtualBox, Hyper-V, QEMU).

Based on py_vmdetect sources from https://github.com/kepsic/py_vmdetect
