A new CISA-NSA joint report follows many calls by both members of the cybersecurity industry and government agencies for a transition to memory-safe languages like Rust, Ruby, Java and C# due to their inherent minimization of memory-related classes of vulnerabilities.
The NSA urged developers and organizations to switch to memory-safe languages to address memory safety issues responsible for most exploitable vulnerabilities. Microsoft and Google attribute 70% of some of their product vulnerabilities to software memory safety issues.
