Memory Hardening

The ESXi kernel, user-mode applications, and executable  components such as drivers and libraries are located at random,  non-predictable memory addresses. Combined with the non-executable  memory protections made available by microprocessors, this provides  protection that makes it difficult for malicious code to use memory  exploits to take advantage of vulnerabilities.

Hope this is the information you were looking for
