How secure is dragon's sandboxing vs chrome's? is it pretty much the same? do all chromium browsers have sandboxing technology?

Good question. I'd like to know as well.

I can't imagine any chromium variants disabling the sandboxing functionality, so I would assume they all use the sandbox.

I'm no expert on the differences between Chrome and Chromium's sandboxes, so perhaps someone else has more information. Chrome does sandbox the Flash plugin, and since Chromium doesn't come bundled with Flash like Chrome, I'm assuming it does not sandbox Flash. So there may be a slight advantage there in terms of Flash exploits, but like I said, I don't know all of the differences. (if any)

It would be better to create your own thread than to take this thread off-topic.

Dragon is basically Google Chrome minus all the tracking facilities of Chrome and some Comodo added stuff. The underlying sandbox technology is the same.

For more information read the topic start of Comodo Dragon Alpha ver 0.9.0.16 is now available for download.
