Hello. I only was wondering if I may ask question?

Recently my website suddenly was missing index.html file.

Of course I am trying to figure out what happened, server somehow deleted it? I doubt it.

I have a politically sensitive site (well hated by rich company that I expose) so I was wondering if hacking my webhost server and deleting index.html is somthing a hacker would do or maybe just some kind of accident?

Thanking you very much

Hi,

First try creating the thread in the right forum and I have for now moved your thread in the right forum.

Also My answer would be accident because if I get hold of your FTP server and you are exposing me I would delete everything and not just one file. If this happens regularly then you can assume something is behind it.

Also,a script kiddie wouldn't delete the index file,he/she would make a deface ( put his name in your front page) for 2 minutes of fame).
Just create the index.html and scan your websites for vulnerabilities. Recently i accessed a well Known Proxy-server service server. And i wonder,where's the security of the members then. Make sure you update everything and "secure it".

You and me would definitely do that but not the companies who pays 1000s of bucks to do the job

LOL well i mean sometimes i get into the site (depending on either if its hosted on his server or a hosting company) ill include a virus into the upload directory which then gets saved on to his pc and then include a batch file to specify to open a port like 9999 and then install netcat then remotely connect to his pc

Then thats where the fun starts
