I work in infosec, specifically in penetration testing. I learned Perl to some extent years ago when Metasploit was still written in Perl (They switched to Ruby). It seems these days that most people in my industry like Python, and some of the most important modules we use in my field are in Python. Does Perl offer any modules as comprehensive as Impacket for hacking protocols such as SMB, WMI, Kerberos, etc?

I think we need to create the next generation of Perl devs, because one day we’ll all be dead. What will Perl become if we don’t train as many people as we can?
