About the Project

Welcome to Raspirus, your lightweight signature-based malware scanner. Originally designed to scan attached USB drives using a Raspberry Pi, Raspirus has evolved into a versatile tool capable of scanning local files and folders as well. It started out as a Matura project by Benji377 in 2022 Italy and has since been developed further.

Free & Open Source

Raspirus is free and open source software. You can use it for free and you can also contribute to the project. This ensures safety and transparency. The project runs solely on donations.

Runs everywhere

Raspirus runs on Windows, macOS and Linux. It is also available as a Docker container. It is designed to run on low-end devices. This ensures that Raspirus can be used on almost any device, especially on Raspberry Pi's.

Easy & Intuitive

Raspirus is designed to be easy to use and intuitive. It is designed to be used by everyone, even by people who are not very familiar with computers. The user interface is designed to be as simple as possible.

Development

Raspirus has been in development since 21.09.2022 and is constantly being improved. It went through many iterations, improving with each one. The project is maintained by a small team of developers.

Maintainers

Benjamin Demetz is the main maintainer of Raspirus. He is responsible for the design and maintenance of the project. He is assisted by Felix Hell Björn, who is responsible for the development of the backend. Furthermore there are many other contributors who help with the development of Raspirus.

Resources

The app is designed to be as lightweight as possible. It uses minimal resources and is designed to run on low-end devices. It merely requires an internet connection and keyboard at setup, after which it can be used offline and through a touch screen. The bigger the touchscreen and faster the CPU, the better the experience.
