title: How to recover a site after an xss attack?
body: <p>Recently i was studying about the <code>XSS</code> attacks and how devastating they can be on a website.</p>
  
  <p>What surprised me was that, web (<em>even SO</em>) is full about <strong><em>how to prevent xss attack</em></strong> but there is no relevant resource on how to <strong>recover a website, after it has been attacked through xss</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>There are some things which i came across like :</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>upload the backup website code back on server</li>
  <li>download the entire site and manually look for any malicious script</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>but these doesn't sound good enough....i mean, isn't there any other <em>professionaly active</em> method to recover the sites once hacked???</p>
