Paid on delivery
I have some type of malware that is writing malware to .js files. Most likely it is embedded in a php file somewhere, probably from a bad wordpress plug. I have about 20 different sites on my shared server and I need to find where these are coming from, clean the php files and patch all the wordpress sites to keep from having this issue again. Please only bid if you have experience with this and you understand linux and linux permissions as well as how these types of malware infiltrate and propogate.

Hello! I'm really interested in your project. With over 10 years of web hosting experience and linux server management I can help you clean your websites from malware. I can work for you on hourly basis, my bid is 29USD/hour. I assume it will take about 6 hours to check and clean all 20 sites, but it can be more or less. Do you have direct SSH access to your server? Thanks, David

Hello, I am very interested in working with you on this project. I am fond not only with the linux hosting environment, but also with the majority open source PHP/MySQL-based applications, because I have been performing security audit and malicious code cleanup tasks in my job for over 9 years now. Here at freelancer.com I've also put my skills into practice in several security projects. For properly performing the service, I do need SSH access to the compromised account. Since this is a shared server and you do not have root access, we will need the assistance of the support team to obtain FTP and Apache access logs for analysis of the origin of the attack. Best regards, Nikolay

Hello, I am doing PMTA server setups from 5 years. I do atleast 3 or 4 servers every week. I understand PowerMTA and IP throttling inside out. I have a special default ISP configuration for PowerMTA that works very well for throttling. I have also mastered the art of traffic shaping with PMTA. We have been successfully able to deliver 10 to 15 million emails per day using PMTA on different servers. I can also create SPF/DKIM using PMTA in less than 5 minutes. We can setup a server with multiple IPs and PMTA on it in less than 24 hours for you. Please PM me so that we can open floor for discussion.

Hi, I understand perfectly what this situation can be like and I have handled similar situations. This infiltration can come from a vulnerable plugin, infected theme, weak passwords, incorrect permissions e.t.c It is worse when all websites are on the same hosting account. Once the attacker or malware can access the home directory, its wouldn't be hard to move around. I can help diagnose the problem and the source of the infiltration - this will be the first step in solving the problem. Then I will proceed to cleaning the infected files, correcting permissions and also install a file monitoring application. I will also present to you a list of recommendations to avert this problem in the future. I hope you'll give me a chance to work with you as this will also boost getting future jobs. Kindly message me if you need to discuss further. Thanks
