Microsoft plans to add containers to Windows client, too

Microsoft is working to add container support to Windows 10 client via a project that may be codenamed ‘Barcelona.’

What would container support in Windows client mean from a security standpoint? Instead of using a virtual machine to run a browser, a user could use a Hyper-V container to isolate the browser from other apps running on the operating system. That could keep attackers from infiltrating other parts of the Windows OS via a browser attack.
