The protections are hardware implemented and cannot be forged in software. The basic question here is whether it is practical to support a large-scale C-language software stack with strong pointer-based protection… with only modest changes to existing C code-bases and with reasonable performance cost.

At the lowest level, all computers are programmed with strings of ones and zeroes. When you program in machine language, you are controlling the computer at its brainstem, the root of its existence. You talk to the computer in one of these languages, and a piece of software called a compiler converts it into machine language.
