Site isolation was considered to be resource intensive [7] due to an increase in the amount of memory space taken up by the processes. [30] This performance overhead was reflected in real world implementations as well. [31] Chrome's implementation of site isolation on average took one to two cores more than the same without site isolation. [7]
The normal downloaded Chrome installer puts the browser in the user's local app data directory and provides invisible background updates, but the MSI package will allow installation at the system level, providing system administrators control over the update process [340] – it was formerly possible only when Chrome was installed using Google ...
The core principle of ClickOnce is to ease the deployment of Windows applications. In addition, ClickOnce aims to solve three other problems with conventional deployment models: the difficulty in updating a deployed application, the impact of an application on the user's computer, and the need for administrator permissions to install applications.
In Google Chrome's "Multi-Process Architecture" [4] and Internet Explorer 8's "Loosely Coupled IE (LCIE)", [5] tabs containing webpages are contained within their own semi-separate OS-level processes which are isolated from the core process of the browser so as to prevent the crash of one tab/page from crashing the entire browser.
Chromium is a free and open-source web browser project, primarily developed and maintained by Google. [3] It is a widely-used codebase, providing the vast majority of code for Google Chrome and many other browsers, including Microsoft Edge, Samsung Internet, and Opera.
ungoogled-chromium is a free and open-source variant of the Chromium web browser that removes all Google-specific web services. [5] [6] [7] It achieves this with a series of patches applied to the Chromium codebase during the compilation process. The result is functionally similar to regular Chromium. [8] [9]
In Chrome, they are translated to architecture-specific executables so that they can be run. NaCl uses software fault detection and isolation for sandboxing on x86-64 and ARM. [24] The x86-32 implementation of Native Client is notable for its novel sandboxing method, which makes use of the x86 architecture's rarely used segmentation facility. [25]
Sandboxie is an open-source OS-level virtualization solution for Microsoft Windows. [10] [11] [12] It is a sandboxing solution that creates an isolated operating environment in which applications can run without permanently modifying the local system.
