Monitor Your Website Directory
by Dan
Well it seems that I have had a hell of a time cleaning up my website from its recent hack. Gotta love it when the first time you find out about your site being compromised is via google.
So what happened to me is someone uploaded a whole bunch of files to my Wordpress directory with links to god knows what content. So after going through those directories (numerous times!) and cleaning them up and deleting outdated random files I think it is finally clean.
I was looking for something to monitor my website directories for any file changes or any random uploads that I didn’t authorize. I came across this PHP script that you can put in your root directory and then you set a cron job to run the script every so many hours.
The script emails a specified email address and lets you know of any changes since the last run.
