Abstract
A computer-implemented method for enforcing data loss prevention policies on sandboxed applications may include identifying an application process that is in a sandbox, wherein a broker process has created a file handle for a file on behalf of the application process within the sandbox, intercepting an input/output request performed on the file handle by the application process, wherein the input/output request comprises an identifier of the application process, extracting the identifier of the application process from the input/output request and enforcing a data loss prevention policy on the file by attributing the input/output request to the application process instead of to the broker process based on the identifier of the application process. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
