Re: i think i'm hacked - is this the right place to ask ?

Not exactly. This is mostly Information sharing, collaboration, and advice for security professionals in Higher 
Education.



But any who... maybe I can assist anyway. Can you describe it some more? What are your symptoms? What have you done so 
far? Any clue of the cause?





…Now that I think about it, the better questions are:

Does your research institute not have anyone with information Security knowledge?

Does your research institute have an incident responses plan?

Hi,



i'm working as a system administrator in a research institute in germany. I apprehend that one of my linux hosts is 
hacked.

Would that be the right place to ask some related questions ?

I came to your ML across http://seclists.org/ If not, could you give me a hint where a better place to ask may be ?
