Compromised site latest version of WP

    We have a website for a client – Its been hacked twice now despite us hardening the site and dropping various plugins to the site.

    We have recovered the site and looked in detail loading in various additional plugins.

    However we can see that the hacker must have left something behind as a backdoor.

    If we delete one account (The account that was used to hack the site) then the entire site will vanish.

    So there has to be some code left behind somewhere – Although we have searched everywhere and not managed to find it .. Also running a malware scan shows nothing

    Any suggestions are most welcome on where we could look ?

    thanks
