    I think this is a false positive. I have downloaded the file and scanned that on Virustotal but it was fine. Just Wordfence is detecting that file as malware.

    It is wprocket static cache files.

    Filename: wp-content/cache/wp-rocket/www.example.com/how-to-defend-against-ddos-attacks/index-https.html

    File Type: Not a core, theme, or plugin file from www.ads-software.com.
    Details: This file appears to be installed or modified by a hacker to perform malicious activity. If you know about this file you can choose to ignore it to exclude it from future scans. The matched text in this file is: UDP flood

    The issue type is: Backdoor:PHP/flooder.91
    Description: A backdoor known as flooder`

    Hi @abijita

    Thank you for the update.

    That is a false positive.

    We have pulled that signature for further improvement.
