Yes, I was simplifying — the important part is keeping the untrusted code off of a trusted network. If you want to do the legwork of carefully segregating things then of course network access can work.
I didn’t mention containers since they don’t provide strong isolation and some people misuse them as though they do. There’s no harm in using them as another layer of defense, but hardware virtualization provides much better security.
- PLG88 5y agoWhy not just not trust the network or host at all. Put private connectivity inside trusted code using an SDK. Then the trusted apps can only communicate to devices/apps defined and nothing else. Untrusted code cannot access the trusted network as the network is acutally inside the apps/system.
