Hi,
First answer for this question
________________________________________________________
"1. Joomla adds an extra layer of management between the actual content and how
it gets presented to web visitors. The actual content and site settings are
stored in a mysql database.
Question: what if our "joomla" site gets hacked some how and vandalized? How
easy is it to roll back changes and restore a site after it's been damaged?
With our current system it's real easy ... I just rerun the web site rsync
command and yell at the ISP to fix the security hole. If the problem is all
contained within our mysql database and user managment system, then that could
be harder to deal with. These are things we'll have to explore, but I assume
there is a way to backup the entire site off line and restore it later if there
is a problem? We supposedly have that capability with our phpbb forum, but the
restore side of this has never been tested. Security and recoverability and
fixability is something we need to consider if we were to make an official move
from a simple system to a far more complex system."

Generally:
At first you have to be sure to make the whole installation safe.
Only two or three people should have the acess to it and have authority to
change things. As Torsten already said: it is a mount of work to keep pages
like the wiki clean, so only few authors. Changing passwords regulary should be
clear.
No shared servers!
Make a backup! It is better on a local server apart from the webserver. Not the
system avsim.com used! ;-). In the case of an hack:
you can make list of those files which has changed, there is a script available
for it.
But it is better to delete everything and then new installation with the
backup.
