Has your WordPress site already been hacked?

It is important to always maintain security and update your site plugins and software regularly and immediately once an easily exploitable vulnerability has been discovered.

Every site owner should know if their web site is vulnerable and just installing “security plug-ins” are not enough.

If you site has ever been compromised, hackers will often hide “backdoor files” in your WordPress installation that they use to re-hack a compromised web site at a later date.

In our experience, without a full forensic inspection there is a very high chance that your site will be re-compromised again in future.

AI + AUTOMATED HACKING

AI has made exploiting code vulnerabilitiesand backdoor monitoring an automated process, requiring no ‘real human hacker’ to do ANY of the hacking work.

This automation includes automated probing, account sign ups, and required tooling to find and exploit a known software or network vulnerability.  Once in, low level monitoring is usually put in place.

Hacker groups usually keep logs of all infected sites + backdoors which they sell on the darkweb.  These backdoors are generally regularly “checked” but not used until a buyer is found.

Once a buyer is found, that buyer then proceeds to do whatever they wish from there – sometimes it’s a human, sometimes it’s another AI working for nefarious minds.

A detailed forensic investigation and audit after a site has been hacked is always needed unless you plan to re-build your site from scratch and scrub the database of code.
