Does anyone even write Linux viruses anymore? I thought the days of the Morris Internet Worm were long gone.

I can ssh into their boxes & sudo to enter any commands, install any software, etc. We have never had someone succeed like this so I'm not sure what to do. all of our stuff is saved in gdrive/cloud/etc so we don't care about losing anything on the systems, but we do financial transactions, bank access, etc, so I need to make sure we are not compromised. I prefer not to reinstall the systems if possible. I won't share the links the vendor emailed us; I don't want any of you accidentally clicking them! thank you in advance!
