Abstract
Methods and systems are disclosed for a sandbox based internet isolation in an untrusted network. A host computer system may include a host-based firewall, an operating system, a first memory space, and a second memory space. The host-based firewall may be configured to prevent unauthorized communication between the trusted host computer system and one or more other devices on an untrusted LAN and/or the Internet. The second memory space may be configured to enable storage and/or operation of one or more applications and/or processes associated with a sandboxed computing environment. The host computer system may include a sandbox firewall that enforces separation of the first and second memory spaces.
