Abstract

Methods and systems are disclosed for implementing one or more isolated computing environment via one or more memory spaces. The isolated computing environment may be configured to execute one or more sandboxed applications and/or processes associated with the isolated computing environment. One or more firewalls may be associated with the one or more sandboxed containers. One or more firewalls may be configured to apply a set of criteria (e.g., policies) to each of the applications and/or processes. In examples, the one or more sandbox firewalls may exist for each of the applications and/or processes and may prevent unauthorized communications between the applications and/or processes. In examples, a sandbox firewall may be configured to apply a set of criteria to one or more applications and/or processes associated with the one or more isolated computing environments. The sandbox firewall may be configured to allow authorized communications between the applications and/or processes.
