The application begins with deploying a virtual machine on the user's computer (a PC or Mac), then loads the iBOX operating system and browser. iBOX uses VirtualBox technology to create a separate computer instance on the host machine. These buffers allow the user to access their vulnerable information within a more secure environment. iBOX does not keep any of the user's data, but operates as a layer of security between its user and the Internet. Universal iBOX has two modes: banking and browsing. Banking mode provides access to banking and financial institutions websites only. The proxy server is configured such that the user is unable to reach any other websites. Browsing mode allows the user to access any website without restrictions from the proxy server. The user can simply switch between two modes without any risk of jeopardizing the security of the application. The Windows version of iBOX is built with a portable loader, so that the application may be loaded from a USB device without installation.
