Putting aside the string of 0-day exploits on applet plugins (which absolutely nobody uses) that we saw a few years ago, I'm finding it difficult to get info that backs up the claim that Java is much less secure than .NET. What I have found indicates they are on par. e.g. https://www.veracode.com/sites/default/files/Resources/Reports/state-of-software-security-focus-on-application-development.pdf
It feels a bit like the old "java is slow" argument, which hasn't been true for over a decade.
