| I know this is a lot to try to secure. 
 Perl: I know with perl that there's a secure paddle lock on ppm manager.  I have noticed this when it was to late and after all of the ppm's were installed.  I have also noticed that there's ppl on this board that says perl isn't to secure.  So how to do u secure perl (the different ways)?  Also, is there a way to secure it using mod_security?
 
 PHP: Is there a way to secure php (the different ways)?  How do u secure php using it's php.ini file?  How do you secure php using mod_security?
 
 MySQL: Is there a way to secure MySQL (the different way)? How do you secure mysql using it's ini files?  How do you secure it using mod_security?
 
 Python:  I haven't sent any ini files so how do u secure python?  How do you secure using mod_security?
