Windows 8 - Windows Defender API to scan files

2012-11-17 Thread Preet Sangha
Let's assume I wanted to write a program that would scan files using
Windows Defender.

I know I can use System.Process to the command line, but I was wondering if
there is an API that I could connect to and issue commands.

It's just a pet project to and nothing too serious, but my google fu is
failing me.
