Abstract

There is a recent trend to use privately owned mobile devices in corporate environments. This poses serious threats on the security of corporate data. In this demo we show how we applied an efficient sandboxing mechanism to the Android software stack. This allows us to run multiple instances of Android securely isolated side-by-side on one device. We implemented a prototype on the Samsung Galaxy S2.
