Isn't Java the safest language in that regard? The JVM is one of the few VMs I know with so many viable alternatives, both open and closed. The Google vs Oracle suit also means that they couldn't reattempt a similar claim, if it already went through all courts and list. Also, you'd be taken care of by IBM, Amazon and all the other massively dependent on JVM companies. So an alternative would probably present itself without you needing to spend a dime.
Other VMs are at similar risks, but would have less opposition, and no existing viable replacement.
