Abstract

This paper explores the role of programming languages in ensuring cybersecurity and protecting information systems from evolving digital threats. Programming languages are critical not only in developing secure applications but also in vulnerability testing, penetration simulations, cryptographic algorithm design, and malware analysis. The study examines the contributions of key programming languages such as Python, C/C++, Java, Go, and Assembly in modern security practices. Furthermore, it evaluates the impact of programming on proactive defense mechanisms, compares traditional security approaches with language-driven automation, and highlights challenges in implementing secure coding standards. The findings indicate that programming languages are indispensable tools in building robust cybersecurity infrastructures and combating global cybercrime.
