I work on web server with very high security behind a firewall.
If someone got in to our server and "attacked" our web server, what
what would I have to do as a web developer? Do I take down all of my
pages? Does the System Admin have to "sanitize" the web server? What is
"sanitize"?
Please advise if anyone been through this and what has to be done.

Also what other stressful situations can happen as a web developer?
