What a detection means
- Establishes
- One or more public signals on the scanned page matched a known Perl signature at the time of the scan.
- Does not establish
- A sitewide install of Perl, an active vendor contract, exclusive use, or that Perl is still in place today.

How to check a site for Perl

- 2. PluginView reads only public responses and scores them against proprietary Perl fingerprints. Rule bodies and identifiers are not published.
- 3. Review the confidence score and text explanation for Perl on the results page.
