Abstract
A system, method, and apparatus for operating system integrated application isolation. A snapshot manager creates a snapshot table including one or more pointers to a file system storage. Then an application is installed on an operating system and mapped to a snapshot table. The snapshot manager receives a request by the application to access a memory block. The snapshot manager determines whether the application has permission to access the memory block. Responsive to a determination that the application has permission to access the memory block, the snapshot manager permits access to the memory block.
