true ... and backup on 2nd drive will be good ONLY if unmounted after the backup is done.
I had that type of attack on a virtual box, and he wiped out all index.html as well as main.html and php to ( if my memory is right ).It wiped out also the backup drive.
The MAIN problem is that it also wiped out the Cpanel index files and deep into sub-folders.
A reinstall was required and most clients did not have their own backups ( naturally ... host fault ). Had to recreate the index files....
It came from a script that was nulled by a turkish group, installed by a client , and that had a huge backdoor to the server ( like giving root in ssh ). Those who know will recognize part of the names of the sripts : 57 and 99 with some letters before.
That is THE problem with virtual.
So, on topic , do your OWN backups, and save them to another server or locally.
