What is a memory protection?

Memory protection is a mechanism implemented in computer systems to prevent unauthorized access or modification of memory locations. It ensures that each process or program running on the system can only access the memory locations that it has been allocated and is authorized to access. Memory protection helps in maintaining the integrity and security of the system by preventing accidental or malicious interference with memory contents.
