  Could you tell me if there is anyway to regain access to this site as it appears to have been breached and the credentials changes including username and password.

  Self-declared URL: Https:dsc.uk.net
  Jetpack: Unknown

  Hi there,
  This is WordPress.com forum, the website you are using is built on open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org), which is hosted elsewhere rather than WordPress.com. To avoid confusion about WordPress.com vs WordPress.org please know the differences from here https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/

  However, there are multiple ways to reset the password of self-hosted WordPress. Here is a link which might help you. https://wordpress.org/support/article/resetting-your-password/

  If this doesn’t help, you can contact your hosting provider support team and regain the access. They might be able to help you.

  For general discussion about open source software, you can find community advice here https://wordpress.org/support/forums/ where you’ll find more experts who are using the same software as you to provide help.

  Thanks
