Sandboxie-Plus 1.11.0 Released
Added 2023-08-25 07:01:25 +0000 UTCNew 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 a advanced level supporter certificate, you will need to re get your patreon certificate, the system will issue now TYPE: PATREON-ADVANCED certificates, if you still are et the 1€ tier and as a legacy supporter receive a certificate that will remain non advanced, update to the 3€ tier will be required to get a new advanced certificate. GREAT_PATREON certificates are automatically recognized as advanced, no upgrade required.

Comments
Ah, I was wondering why the release notes had no typos and used "we" instead of "I". That felt like a corporation wrote that. :)
