It's not at all like owning a duplex. That would be a hypervisor model to dual persona.
What he is describing is a secure container model that is more like letting out a room (storage and execution context) in your house (phone) to someone else and letting them lock the room to prevent you from getting inside (secure container). They may be dual identities, but they are not independent and isolated. The guy with the locked room has access to any part of the house that isn't locked down. And it's more likely in this model that your personal context is the one that will be exposed to malware. The apps in the secure context are only those approved by the enterprise who is managing the container. It's a pretty good strategy for enterprises who don't need hard security, don't want to manage hardware, and don't want to manage carrier contracts. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Security Discussions" group.
