Google has released an initial beta of Chrome for Android devices. The new mobile version of Chrome has the sandbox functionality that has been so important in the desktop browser, as well as a strict permission model for mobile apps. Chrome is gaining a strong reputation in the security community as the most secure of the major desktop browsers, and it has passed Firefox in market share. The release of the initial beta will ramp up expectations among users looking for an alternative to the other mobile browsers. The major security feature is the inclusion of the sandbox that separates the behavior of each app from other apps.
