    Went to my site this morning and discovered that it had been hacked. I have attached a picture above.

    This hasn't happened before. What can I do?

    The first thing you need to do is reinstate your site - its probably not a password issue but to do with insecure files and systems.

    What CMS have you used?

    used latest version of cms and latest version of plugin or modes

    if u want more security use static html sites thats more safer

    Knowing which CMS is important. For instance in Joomla hackers tend to change the index page of the template rather than the index page of the site. I just figured if we knew what it was we could offer practical advice.

    Safe, perhaps, but totally impractical. rofl
