 * Install the plugin [Wordfence plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordfence)
   and do full scan of your site.
 * If you find malware, Carefully follow [this guide](https://wordpress.org/support/article/faq-my-site-was-hacked/).
   When you’re done, you may want to implement some (if not all) of [the recommended security measures](https://wordpress.org/support/article/hardening-wordpress/)
   and [start backing up your site](https://wordpress.org/support/article/wordpress-backups/).

 * Thanks t-p
    Wordfence seems now to be installing only after purchasing a license(
   though it says to test it for free) Is there any other resource to be used?
