Description: Application Isolation is a security feature that ensures applications run in separate environments to enhance security. This technique allows each application to operate in its own isolated space, known as a ‘sandbox’, meaning that if one application is compromised, the damage is contained within that specific environment and does not affect the main operating system or other applications. This security approach is fundamental in a world where cyber threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated. By segmenting applications, the chances of an attack spreading are minimized, providing an additional layer of defense. Furthermore, Application Isolation facilitates the management of permissions and resources, allowing users to more effectively control what data and functions are available to each application. This feature is particularly relevant in environments where security is critical, such as handling sensitive data or software development. In summary, Application Isolation not only enhances security but also optimizes the organization and control of applications within an operating system.
