Sandbox Libraries (libsandbox & pysandbox)
The sandbox libraries (libsandbox & pysandbox) are a collection of time-tested, open source programing libraries for testing and profiling simple (single process) programs in a restricted environment, or sandbox. Runtime behaviors of binary executable programs can be captured and blocked according to configurable / programmable policies. Currently the sandbox libraries provide API's in C, C++ and Python.
The sandbox libraries were originally designed and utilized as the core security module of a full-fledged online judge system for ACM/ICPC training. They have since then evolved into a general-purpose tool for binary program testing, profiling, and security restriction. The sandbox libraries are currently maintained by the OpenJudge Alliance (http://openjudge.net/) as a standalone, open-source project to facilitate various assignment grading solutions for IT/CS education.
