Might of been hacked!


The company I work for received an e-mail saying that we are over our bandwidth. As everyone may know, when you house your servers in a Data Center they charge you for the bandwidth you use. Normally, our bill is right around $2,000 a month. The bill for the last two months came out to $20,000 for bandwidth!! Now, right off the back when they told us that I said we got hacked and use for DDOS attacks or possibly used as a reply of some sort.

I know some things for Linux but not as much as I should for this job which is sad. THAKN GOD for google! Are there any good places or pointers I can use to check on this issue before it gets worst. I think $20,000 is bad enough. I know I can check logs and stuff like that but I believe that I would have to do much more then that to check this. I would like to thank EVERYONE in advance for ANY help you can provide me here. THANKS!!
