safety isn't "security safety", the things a firewall protect you from can also be an issue with rust.
It's much more a safety that you do not crash, due to input, side effects, parallelism (locking) errors, mapping wrong types, derefercencing null in some edge case by accident, ...
Rust gives you a lot of guarantees here, that it is extremely fast is just the cherry on top.
