I don't see any specific programming language being beneficial in security applications. That's like me making a shitty PB&J and blaming the breadmakers for it.

Stuff like that is human error when they develop the application. Programming languages aren't made with security in mind (besides any runtime-based languages, such as Java and the HotSpot VM). Anyone can make an insecure program in any language.
