Site isolation is a web browser security feature that groups websites into Sandbox (computer security), sandboxed Process (computing), processes by their associated Same-origin policy, origins. This technique enables the process sandbox to block cross-origin bypasses that would otherwise be exposed by exploitable vulnerabilities in the sandboxed process. The feature was first proposed publicly by Charles Reis and others, although Microsoft was independently working on implementation in the Gazelle (web browser), Gazelle research browser at the same time. The approach initially failed to gain traction due to the large engineering effort required to implement it in a fully featured browser, and concerns around the real-world performance impact of potentially unbounded process use. In 2018, following the discovery of the Spectre (security vulnerability), Spectre and Meltdown (security vulnerability), Meltdown vulnerabilities to the public, Google accelerated the work, culminating in ...
