Sandbox
A sandbox is a restricted execution environment designed to limit what code can access or change. Its boundary may use processes, containers, virtual machines, and policies; the word alone does not specify a particular security guarantee.
Also known as: isolated execution
Why it matters
Restricted execution limits exposure when scripts or generated code are not fully trusted.
Practical example
Limit filesystem, network, and credential access when executing an untrusted build script.
