Thanks for your response. We too could not find any information regarding this topic, so we asked here.

As for the server technologies, protobuf does not seem to be listed as an available technology.

As for the using the output of a vulnerability scanner, unfortunately we do not use any of the supported scanners, so this is not an applicable option.

Thanks again for your response. We will try to contact the F5 support.
