Hypatia (version 2.27): A real-time malware scanner. Source: over 1 year ago

This might be an interesting suggestion to the DivestOS team for Hypatia, their FOSS antivirus scanner. I never thought about this, but having this functionality would actually be really important to prevent the installation or usage of warned apps. Source: over 1 year ago

DivestOS also develops a collection of useful FOSS apps that can be installed on any Android device. These apps are available on F-Droid. Highlights include: - Mull (https://gitlab.com/divested-mobile/mull-fenix), a privacy-focused fork of Firefox similar to LibreWolf - Hypatia (https://gitlab.com/divested-mobile/hypatia), a malware scanner that uses ClamAV signatures - MotionLock... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

Sure, people have different priorities when it... Source: about 2 years ago

Check out av-comparatives.org, they're doing about the best that can be done to compare anti-virus software, their most recent test results are here:. Source: over 2 years ago
