That's a really big if.

Nothing can prevent you from unknown trojan horses, though.

Nothing can protect you from known trojan horses which simply don't have any
signature, because they're modifying themselves in a way that doesn't expose
any scanable patterns.

Thus the real solution is to not run any untrustworthy software, whereas
trust has to apply to the vendor, the quality of the implementation and the
quality of the software creation process.
