Learn how Ubuntu is addressing the security challenges of traditional Linux desktop applications that weren't originally designed for sandboxing like Android or iOS applications. Discover the difficulties of isolating desktop applications within the Linux environment and understand how modern applications using portals can be sandboxed, while many legacy applications remain unsupported. Examine Ubuntu's innovative approach to bringing confinement and data confidentiality to both traditional and legacy applications, bridging the gap between modern security practices and older software that hasn't been updated to support current sandboxing technologies.
