Answer:
"Idea" cannot be protected. Let say you have an idea: "Pig fly with no wings". Everybody can come up with idea.
The process to implement the idea can be protect. If you can come up with the process where if, I do this, and that the "Pig fly without wings". That can be protected. Implementation is the hard part.
"existing technology" could be somebody's patent and copyrighted material or intellectual properties.

thank you for the advice
