Service Names Needed

I'm in the process of creating compliance checks that will run in Tenable Nessus. These checks will audit and report the status of system services on Microsoft servers. To do this I need the short names for the service... ex. the display name is Symantec Critical System Protection IDS Agent, the short name is SISIDSService. I cannot find the service name or "short names" for the system service "Display names" listed below, so I thought this would be a good place to look or ask for assistance.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

if you launch a command prompt, and run :

sc query | findstr _NAME

You'll get a list of all the services and long / short names on a system.

You can make the output pretty like this :

cmd /V:ON
for /F "tokens=1,2 delims=:" %i in ('sc query ^| findstr _NAME') do @(
    if   %i==SERVICE_NAME (set SERVICE_NAME=%j                 ) 
    else                  (echo !SERVICE_NAME:~0,20! : %j)
)

Actually, I do not have access to the servers to run that command.
