Hacker Not Detected But Is There

  • I have a hacker that changes my username. Wordfence does not detect anyone in my admin area.

    My question is how is he changing my username?

    Yes, All my plugins are updated and wordpress is updated, this issue has been happening for over 3 months, im now asking for help…HELP.

    My host has been trying but still can’t resolve.

  • I’m having this exact same problem, 3 days in a row – 24 char passwords of letters, numbers and symbols, 2 factor authentication on all sites, and even on my hosting.. yet they can still change my username.

    Like you all plugins and themes are patched and any disabled ones have been removed… sometimes they deface my sites, but for the most part they don’t. Have even reset SALTS.

    After 3 months I have decided to change hosting, I believe that hacker was on that server, I will update on this issue after a few weeks.

    I believe the same thing. I’ve installed plugins to only accept traffic from my country, so if they still get in, then…

    Plus the big thing I’ve noticed is one client opted to keep their site on a pre-existing hosting package, with a different provider, and that site has remained untouched throughout all of this… no defacing and no username change.

    Any scan I run is clean, and perhaps my sites are, it’s their server that is in trouble.

    I have a paid-for forensics test being performed tomorrow or Tuesday so I’ll post what they find in case you find it of interest.
