Google has this thing called “Testing on the Toilet” where they post factoids about Google’s codebase and best practices. I read one and it said FORTRAN is a highly secure language (or there haven’t been any security vulnerabilities found in the language in a while). Devil’s advocate for not writing FORTRAN off completely at first sight.
Apple used to run ad campaigns about how Macs were immune to viruses and therefore highly secure. Turns out enough people just weren't using Mac, and viruses started popping up once it went mainstream.

In case you're not aware, it's a riff on an old Monty Python skit (RIP Terry Jones). An absolute classic, that one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ue7wM0QC5LE
It's definitely not a dead language – a new Fortran front-end has recently been accepted into the LLVM project, joining Clang. So LLVM's only in-tree supported languages (excluding the various IRs) will be C, C++, Objective-C, and Fortran. It had been scheduled for merge into the LLVM monorepo 2 days ago, but has been delayed pending some additional architecture review.
Lots of number crunching code relies on Fortran libraries even today. Install numpy, it will pull in Fortran stuff.
