Abstract

Providing an isolation system that allows analysts to analyze suspicious information in way that aids in preventing harmful information from spreading to other applications and systems on a network. A plurality of virtual containers may be used by analysts to analyze the suspicious information. The analyst may utilize a non-native application to analyze the suspicious information within the virtual container. The non-native application may be used to analyze the suspicious information in an analysis format instead of an original format for which the suspicious information, and any harmful information therein, were intended to be accessed. Additionally, the virtual containers may be accessed through the use of an API that allows an analyst to analyze the suspicious information in the virtual container without transferring information from the virtual container back to the analyst user computer system.
