Abstract
Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed for providing configurable and customizable internet isolation and security schemes for a mobile device. A mobile device (e.g., a cell phone, smart phone, tablet, Internet of Things (IoT) device, etc.) may include a processor and a memory. The mobile device may be configured to implement a workspace and an isolated computing environment. The workspace may enable operation of a set of applications (e.g., trusted applications) via a memory space (e.g., a trusted memory space). The isolated computing environment may enable operation of a set of one or more applications (e.g., untrusted applications) via a memory space (e.g., an untrusted memory space). The untrusted applications may include, for example, one or more of an Internet browser, an email application, a document editing application, or a social media application. The untrusted applications may communicate with one or more untrusted network destinations via a network.
