In-process isolation enforces the principle of least privilege for processes. With such isolation, even if one part of the process is compromised, other parts within the same address space will not be tampered with. However, existing in-process isolation solutions for ARM64 fail to harmonize efficiency, security, and an adequate number of isolation domains without hardware modification.
