Google Offers Help to Webmasters Whose Sites Were Hacked

Google_hacked

Google has launched a page and a set of tutorials aimed for webmasters whose site was hacked

Specifically, Google explains webmasters how to deal with Google's search warning that a site is dangerous, which usually appears if a hacker has infected the site with harmful code

"Every day, cybercriminals compromise thousands of websites. Hacks are often invisible to users, yet remain harmful to anyone viewing the page — including the site owner," claims Google on the site titled "Webmasters help for hacked sites."

Google starts with a video tutorial (above) which explains the basics of how and why sites get hacked, and then goes into more advanced territory with info on how to quarantine a site, identify its vulnerabilities and clean it up from harmful code
