$config = \Drupal::config('system.site');

service, like so:
$config = \Drupal::service('config.factory')->getEditable('system.site');
To read attributes of the Config object, you can use the get()
function, like:
$name = \Drupal::config('system.site')->get('name');

function. For example, calling:
$pages = \Drupal::config('system.site')->get('page');
Will return an array with each value from the mapping, like so:
[ '403' => 'url', '404' => 'url', 'front' => 'url', ]
