Jails for NetBSD is an experimental prototype for lightweight, kernel-enforced isolation on NetBSD.
It closes the operational gap between simple chroot environments and full virtualization platforms such as Xen.

System hardening profiles
Supervised service execution
Unified lifecycle management
Centralized logging
Snapshot-based metrics export
The system stays fully NetBSD-native: isolation and policy enforcement are built into the kernel security framework, not delegated to a separate runtime layer.
