Explanation:
When an applet is executed, the JVM will create a virtual machine within an environment called a sandbox. This virtual machine is an enclosed environment in which the applet carries out its activities. Applets are commonly sent over within a requested web page, which means the applet executes as soon as it arrives. It can carry out malicious activity on purpose or accidentally if the developer of the applet did not do his part correctly. So the sandbox strictly limits the applet’s access to any system resources. The JVM mediates access to system resources to ensure the applet code behaves and stays within its own sandbox.
