Get alerted on modified files?
I am running a VPS on a Linux system. Most of my websites are php with mysql databases. I'm concerned about SQL injection and other forms of hacking. While I am securing my code the best I can, I have 30+ sites and use some third-party stuff (about a dozen Wordpress installs, CMS's, etc.), so I can't ever be 100% sure.
What I would like is an automated report that sends out when files are edited, excluding maybe apache logs and things like that. Or even if it was a file I could go check for a log of edits.
Is there a way to do that via command line or WHM? Or anyone know of a solution? I think it would be a great security measure for my case, where tons of files aren't edited all the time, and I am the only person who would be making any changes.

I think Samhain would be perfect for your needs.

I'm reading about both Samhain and Monit right now. Samhain seems to have a lot more security functionality, but I don't know if I would even know to use most of it.
