How do I install DA without mod_security?

I'm setting up some new servers and the problem I'm having is with mod_security, as I do not want it installed onto the server.

I'm ruing CentOS 6.9 and am installing DA on a fresh, clean server. During the DA installation setup, I choose Option 1 for the latest CustomBuild.

After DA is installed, I upgrade MySQL to 5.6 and downgrade PHP to 5.4

How or where is mod_security being installed? What am I missing here?

I've installed DA onto CentOS 6 in the past and have never had these issues.

I checked the httpd.conf file and there's nothing in there regarding mod_security being set to install:

#ClamAV-related Settings
clamav=no
clamav_exim=yes
modsecurity_uploadscan=no
proftpd_uploadscan=no
pureftpd_uploadscan=no
suhosin_php_uploadscan=no

I don't know what else to do... how do I install DA without mod_security?

Any help would be appreciated?
