What is perl and What is a "sandbox
Reply With Quote
1) Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming language. Perl includes features of C, shell scripting etc.
The language provides powerful text processing facilities without the arbitrary data length limits of many contemporary Unix tools, facilitating easy manipulation of text files. It is also used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, applications that require database access and CGI programming on the Web.
2) In Sand bag technique we have a virtual system on which we can run untrusted code, as this virtual machine is isolated from the main/physical machine if the untrusted code causes some harm it will not effect our physical machine and that harm will only be contained with in that virtual machine.
In sand box method we provide the untrusted code with the restricted resources so it does not reach to other resources.
