Like wappalyzer (Mozilla addon), GTmetrix finds cms platform

Question

I am currently developing a site that should not expose its magento developer platform (sorry for that).

I thought that wappalyzer (Mozila addon), the GTmetrix website finds cms names in its html format, but when I saw a blank white page with these tools, it still shows me how I use Magento (there is nothing in the original view - its white page), so now how do they find me to use magento. Any idea of ​​the work they work? I checked the headers, but there was nothing particularly mentioned as magento. The same thing happens with wordpress / joomla - just wappalyzer (Mozila addon), GTmetrix finds the site platform, there’s not even an html source.

So, I think there is something with a heading (maybe something is missing) or what could it be? Please advise. Attached screenshot.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You can view the source code of Wappalyzer: (Ctrl + F Magento):

https://github.com/ElbertF/Wappalyzer/blob/master/share/js/apps.js

Most likely, Wappalyzer picked up the JavaScript Mage variable. You can see this by clicking the DOM tab in Firebug.

They find it using words like magician, varien, magento. If he finds any of these words inside the css / js file class, # id, inside a comment, he will find it as magento.

Gtmetrix also takes one more step, for example, checking the css / js url url - if it finishes url like skin / frontend then it says it's magenta.
