Future Proof Development with Memory-Safe Rust Programming Language

Rust is a memory-safe programming language known for its efficiency, concurrency, and performance. Rust, the programming language of choice of many security-minded developers, is predicted by Forrester to become a top ten TIOBE coding language in 2025. 

Cargo is Rust’s build system and package manager, streamlining development by handling dependency management, project builds, testing, documentation and publication. By integrating with Cargo (Rust), Sonatype empowers developers to create memory-safe, innovative software while maintaining the security, compliance, and overall health of their software projects.
