I've had an urgent request for a few paragraphs on the justification for the use of perl. In particularly mod_perl.
Someone in the powers that be read an outdated description and thinks that using perl is a security risk - (I know, its not what you use, but how you use it thats the security concern).
Any ideas?
We're a global security company. We scan email for spam and viruses for some places you may have heard of, like the UK government and the US Federal Reserve. About 50% of everything we do is in perl (including mod_perl/AxKit for our quarantine system). We're also BS/ISO-7799 if that's the sort of thing your powers that be need to hear.
Does that help?
