Can a Website Be Hacked Due to PAD Files? Are PAD Files Safe?

2 replies
Good day,
I have been a fan of PAD files and have been using it for linkbuilding and software downloads for over 2 years now. I used this for several clients to increase their links and rankings.

But, among more than 10+ clients we had, 2 of their websites have been hacked. They are pinpointing the exe files that I have uploaded for the PAD files.

Please explain if this is even possible. Can hackers get information/ personal data from the exe files? Can they even enter/ hack the site through these? Can PAD files or exe files really be a threat to website security?

Please help because I am really confused.

    As I have heard, yes exe files in your server can be used by hackers to get access to the website.

      Yes it's possible. Check what's in the exe files.
