Does anyone know a good alternative for Hypatia?
Unsure how reliable this is for other attack vectors, but amnesty Intl has https://github.com/mvt-project/mvt for known Pegasus signatures
Note: this is ran on a computer and scans via adb
No, and simply somebody that know what they're doing should pick it up. I'd certainly be willing to donate a little, just as I donated to the original project.
The FOSS Android world has a new music player every week, and apparently still only one antivirus.
Antivirus on Android? How does that work? Warden seems a better idea to me.
Hypathia uses the same method as clam-av. It hashes all the files and compares it to a known database of malware. It's a lot faster than whatever Avast is using.
