There are a few things to understand upfront when speaking about the differences between sandboxing and software containers, which are sometimes called "jails," and before you make a decision on which one to implement. The answer is a combination of both, but many organizations might not be able to afford or have the expertise to implement both. Hopefully, understanding how they're used will allow enterprises to make an educated decision moving forward.
Sandboxes became a big hit a few years back, after we realized malware was still making its way past antivirus software and infecting our networks. The issue with antivirus is that all systems need signature-based agents installed on the machines, and they have to be updated to at least give the endpoint a fighting chance against malware. Since antivirus wasn't catching everything -- even when it was fully updated and installed on workstations -- the use of sandboxing grew.
Sandboxing relies on multiple virtual machines (VMs) to catch traffic as it ingresses/egresses in the network, and it is used as a choke point for malicious activity detection. The goal of sandboxing is to take unknown files and detonate them within one of the VMs to determine if the file is safe for installation. Since there are multiple evasion techniques, this doesn't always make for a foolproof solution; it's just an extra layer of defense. Read the rest of my article at the link below:
