How Data Center Login as root ?

Hi,

In one of my dedicated server, data center told they loged in and chmod a web site to 000 for abuse.

I have changed the initial password they give. How they login as root with out password ?

I checked lastlog, they loged in as root.

Server allow DC to login as root from special IP ?

I think this happen to me for two servers in different DC.

Not sure if they got the password from helpdesk support request.

Regards,

Yujin
