Technology Confidence Scores
Confidence is a practical guide, not a legal guarantee. It helps users decide whether a detection is strong enough to act on or should be verified first.
What increases confidence
Confidence improves when evidence is specific, recent and repeated.
Multiple independent fingerprints point to the same technology.
Evidence appears on several crawled pages.
Signals match a known technology catalog entry and category.
Recent observations support the current stack.
What lowers confidence
Some signals are useful but not definitive.
Old cached assets can remain after a migration.
CDNs can host copied files from older stacks.
Generic script names or category-level matches may be ambiguous.
How to use confidence
Use high-confidence detections for segmentation and prioritization. When a decision is high-stakes, check the evidence and verify the live site before acting.
