Wow i didnt know about those, thanks.
Me neither. Found out after you posted here.
Are you a computer scientist?
I like to be but I am not. To clarify it, I don't have enough knowledge to be a "student".Also this doesnt solve the problem it only makes it more imperative. Since the same way as you install the bitcoin core or armory into the offline PC you can also put the virus there on the first install.
Also if you then decide to put an antivirus on the offline pc then you can also slip the virus in together with the antivirus..
So it seems to me there is no 100% security out there. What do you think?

There is nothing as "perfect solution". There is always a problem in it but if you ask me, I will go towards the door which tells me to go away not the door which calls me towards it.
Yea but i`m not talking about 0.01BTC either, i`m talking about 10.000 posibbly 100.000BTC to be managed. When you own that amount of funds then you have to pay additionally for increased security.
Then it is better to use Multisig wallet or a Multisig-hardware wallet. If you have 2+ phones, you can use Bither.
It could not be intentional though, many softwares can be infected unintentionally though. That's why i scanned my own softwares that i made with 4 different antiviruses to make sure nothing slipped inside it. Even if i made the code 100%, there could be the possibility that a malicious resource file copies itself into the assembly.
You are right. I will also suggest you to ask a trusted person to verify the codes especially if you made it because some codes may not be suspicious to us but it maybe to others.
