Security software written in a type-safe, memory-safe language is very appealing. Entire classes of vulnerabilities are removed using Go or Rust.

The same can of course be said for software written in Java and C#, except their bloated runtimes make them resource hungry and include fun side effects like human-noticeable GC pauses.

The home-grown crypto in this tool makes it rather unappealing, though.
