## What is Sandboxed API?
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The Sandboxed API project (**SAPI**) aims to make sandboxing of C/C++ libraries
|
|
|
|
|
less burdensome: after initial setup of security policies and generation of
|
2019-09-04 20:21:29 +08:00
|
|
|
library interfaces, an almost-identical stub API is generated, transparently
|
|
|
|
|
forwarding calls using a custom RPC layer to the real library running inside a
|
|
|
|
|
sandboxed environment.

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, each SAPI library utilizes a tightly defined security policy, in
|
2019-03-20 05:10:15 +08:00
|
|
|
contrast to the typical sandboxed project, where security policies must cover the total
|

|
|
|
syscall/resource footprint of all utilized libraries.
