The fact that the article is mentioning MemGC as a defense against use-after-free attacks (something I don't believe managed languages need be concerned) and the way Control-Flow-Guard is described leads me to think it's primarily C++. Probably a mix of native/managed, but I suspect that any managed code is kept to a minimum given the emphasis on native protection and countermeasures. If this is the case then I'd be interested in their rationale in deciding not to go 100% managed.
