Is cloudOS as secure as running VM?

[QUOTE="Kongo, post: 931705, member: 59691"] As I mentioned above you can use for example Tor within a sandbox. It's pretty unlikely that you get infected from just visiting a website, but it can happen. In that case you still have the sandbox that shields your browser from the rest of the system. And if even this layer fails you still have your AV. If you plan to do malware testing and browse malicious websites intentionally, you will have to run a VM (even if it's laggy for you) or just use an old laptop within it's own network so it's shielded from your other devices ([USER=89360]@McMcbrad[/USER] does that as far as I know). Everything else would be pretty risky. [/QUOTE]
