in thread Method to verify an environment with changes

For files and directories, use a version control system. I'd use git, for which CPAN modules are available. You can check the cleanness of an entire repository with a single command. For a database, I'd probably record and verify transaction IDs.

perl -le'print map{pack c,($-++?1:13)+ord}split//,ESEL'
