Web-space: If your web-space has been compromised you would want to take steps to re-secure any information which may have been collected by the hacker (such as passwords, and contact information) and re-secure the web space its self.
A.) Take steps to update any passwords that are used or available in your web-space or databases. You may also need to inform any other users of the potential compromise.
B.) As with security of your personal computer, it may be best to “re-image,” or delete all files/databases associated, and re-upload from (known secure) backup or new updated code and files.
1.) Make Backups frequently! This way you always have a recent secure backup to restore from.
C.) Update any applications (Wordpress, Joomla, or any other CMS or server-side scripts) you are running. Contact the vendor/developer for updates if needed, and be sure to always keep up to date with security patches and advisories.
