This is almost tautological. Application vulnerabilities will always be the low-hanging fruit, because that's where the attack surface is. 20 years ago, an OS had juicy attack surface, because the bugs hadn't been shaken out of TCP/IP stacks and OS's shipped with stupid services enabled that nobody used.
