When sandbox builds are enabled, Nix will setup an isolated environment for each build process. It is used to remove further hidden dependencies set by the build environment to improve reproducibility. This includes access to the network during the build outside of <code>fetch*</code> functions and files outside the Nix store.  Depending on the operating system access to other resources are blocked as well (ex. inter process communication is isolated on Linux); see [https://nixos.org/nix/manual/#sec-conf-file nix.conf section] in the Nix manual for details.
