What does Rust have to do with security? It's not even compliant with any modern security standards (at least not that I'm aware of).

This makes no sense. D is a general-purpose language, just like Rust, Nim and Go (and it does concurrency better than Go, IMO). It just happens to be the best general-purpose language that I've ever used. The language gets out of your way and lets you focus on solving problems in the domain you're working in.
