In computer security, a sandbox is a security mechanism for the ongoing safety programs. It is often used to execute code untested, unverified, or third-party programs, providers and users of trust.
The sandbox typically provides a tightly controlled set of resources for programs to run in guests such as disk space and memory work. Access to the network, the ability to inspect the host system or read from input devices are generally not allowed or severely limited. In this sense, sandboxes a specific example of virtualization.
