Software update: Sandboxie Plus 5.66.0 / 1.11.0

Sandboxie is a program that makes it possible to run programs in a protected environment under Windows. This way, changes made by programs or web browsers are easy to undo, and there is no risk of affecting important parts of the operating system. Sandboxie can be used on Windows 7 or later and is offered as open source. It is available in a classic and plus version. Internally they work the same, but the latter has a more modern user interface built with Qt. The release notes for this release can be found below.

New Features and Enhancements

• ImDisk Driver Integration
  We are excited to introduce the integration of the ImDisk driver. This new addition allows users to create boxes that reside directly in a RAM disk, offering enhanced performance and speed.
• Encrypted Sandbox Support
  Your data security is our priority. With our newly added Encrypted Sandbox support, users can now establish confidential boxes that ensure zero data leaks to the host PC. This feature is designed for those seeking an extra layer of security.

ImBox Component: Leveraging the cryptographic prowess of DiskCryptor, our new ImBox component ensures that the sandbox root folder is securely stored within an encrypted container file.

Enhanced Security with SbieDrv: Our innovative use of SbieDrv actively prevents processes that don’t belong to the sandbox from accessing an encrypted sandbox’s root folder. Your data remains isolated and protected.

ConfidentialBox Option: With the “ConfidentialBox=y” option, host process read access to sandboxed processes memory is effectively blocked, further safeguarding your sensitive information. Upgrade now and experience a more secure and streamlined sandboxing experience!

Note: The Encrypted Sandbox feature requires an advanced level supporter certificate, Contributor, Great Patreon, Huge and Large type certificates qualify, Business, Medium and Small needs to be upgraded using an upgrade key which can be obtained on the web store and has to be entered on the support page. The client then obtains an upgraded certificate of the same type from the server. Also for more clarity the available certificate scheme was restructured Small was renamed to Subscription, Medium to just Personal, Large was removed and a Family Pack subscription was added.
