    Good day from Singapore,

    I have discovered that Kaspersky Rescue Disk is based on Debian 12. Please
    see below.

    Debian Linux is rock solid and superb. It is used as the foundation/buildin
    g block of Kaspersky Rescue Disk antivirus scanner.

    Thank you Debian!

    Cool. When will it be good enough for use as your desktop? ?

    Thanks,

    Instead of using proprietary stuff why don't you use clamav ?

    I have already used ClamAV on bootable Kali Linux 25.04 USB thumb drive bef
    ore using Kaspersky Rescue Disk for a second opinion and then using Dr.Web LiveDisk for a third opinion.
