There are various reasons, some of them being:
  • different to many other languages, Java runs in a virtual machine that allows only limited access to the host system
  • Java does not allow pointers, so you can not easily access data you shouldn't
  • the compiler catches more compiletime errors than those for most languages
For more information, here you have an article on Java's security architecture.

Greetings,
