Internet vagabonds to be foiled by Gazelle
Microsoft’s planned ’super-sandbox’ web browser/OS, code-named Gazelle, will provide a “bullet-proof” environment to run potentially high-risk applications, Cyber-Ark said this week.
The security specialist said memory sandboxing, as Microsoft intends to use for Gazelle, is a “highly effective” way to create a secure environment, because “the environment disappears entirely when the sandbox is closed”.
“This is not dissimilar to our segmented approach to storing company critical and private data, keeping access to the main company data completely separate to the private information,” said Mark Fullbrook, Cyber-Ark director in the UK and Ireland.
