Sandbox Security Overview

StateSet Sandbox provides layered security from the edge to execution runtimes.

Security Layers

  • API Gateway: TLS, rate limiting, API key auth, and WAF
  • Controller: Input validation, authz, secret management, audit logging
  • Runtime Isolation: Container, gVisor, or microVMs (Kata/Firecracker)

Isolation Modes

  • Container: Fastest, best for trusted workloads
  • gVisor: User-space kernel for untrusted code
  • Kata/Firecracker: MicroVM isolation for sensitive workloads

Key Management

  • Generate strong API keys
  • Store keys in environment variables or secret managers
  • Rotate keys regularly
