Security

Hello,

 

I am wondering if application virtualisation increases the security towards vulnerability of 0 day exploits.

I have searched the www but I don't find enough information.

http://stealthpuppy.com/dont-virtualize-adobe-reader-x/

is an example which shows that virtualisation could be counterproductive because the implemented sandbox of the application doesn't work anymore-> in this case Adobe Reader X.

 

Please can anyone tell details of the security of virtualised applications by Thinapp.

For example Adobe flash, Acrobat Reader and Microsoft Office can be virtualised. But what does it mean to security issues of this software. Can someone tell me if exploits can break out into the RAM of the system which runs the virtualised app? And than execute code which was injected by the exploit?

 

Thank You.
