Showcasing the drool-worthy
The brains behind Google Chrome
Sep 4, 2008
Darin Fisher described security features in Chrome, which isolates each browser tab into its own domain, called a sandbox. That means one misbehaving Web site won't bring down the entire browser--important as more work gets done in Web applications--and also that a Web-based attack will have a harder time taking over the machine.
"For a bad guy to get malware onto your computer, ordinarily he'd have to find a bug in your rendering engine," Fisher said. "Not in Google Chrome. In Chrome he also has to find a way out of the sandbox."
