Auto-Sandbox Technology™

Define Auto-Sandbox

TechnologyThe sandbox is a virtual operating environment for untrusted

programs – ensuring viruses and other malicious software are

completely isolated from the rest of your computer.

Run an Application in the Sandbox for

Computer Security

Comodo Endpoint Security allows you to run programs inside the

Sandbox on a 'one-off' basis. This is helpful to test the behavior of

new executables that you have downloaded or for applications that

you are not sure that you trust.

Adding a program in this way means that it will run in the Sandbox

this time only. On subsequent executions it will not run in the

sandbox (presuming it passes the sandboxing process).

You can also create a desktop shortcut to run the application inside

the sandbox on future occasions. The following image shows hows

a 'virtual' shortcut will appear on your desktop:

To run an application in the Sandbox:

Open the Sandbox Tasks interface and Click 'Run Virtual'.

The 'Run Virtual' dialog will be displayed.

To run an application inside the sandbox, click 'Choose and Run' then browse to

the application. The application will run with a green border indicating that it is

sandboxed. If you wish to run the application in the sandbox in future, then

select 'Create a virtual desktop shortcut'.

Browse to the application and click 'Open'. In the example above, Open Office

Writer is chosen.

Alternatively, you can run an application inside the sandbox by the following

shortcut methods:

→ By dragging-and-dropping the application on to CES Home screen

→ From the context sensitive menu

→ Running browsers inside sandbox

Drag-and-drop the application on to CES Home Screen:

The Home screen of the Comodo Endpoint Security interface has a flippable pane at the

left side allowing you to run instant scans or run a program in sandbox. To flip the pane to

carry out these tasks, just click the curved arrow at the top right side of the pane.

To run a program in a sandbox, first flip the pane by clicking the curved arrow at the top

right side to display 'Sandbox Objects'.

Now, navigate to the program in your system that you want to run in

sandboxed environment and just drag and drop into the box.

Running a program from the context sensitive menu

Navigate to the program in your system that you want to run in sandboxed environment

and right click on it

Choose 'Run in Comodo Sandbox' from the context sensitive menu

Running Browsers inside the Sandbox

The CES Desktop Widget displays shortcut icons of the browsers installed in your

computer.

Choose 'Run in Comodo Sandbox' from the context sensitive menu

Clicking on a browser icon will start the browser inside the

sandbox.
