and the malleolus content was X-PHP-Originating-Script: 1271:session.php(1947) : eval()'d code

now I have taken steps to step up my security to the site but they still manage to hack my website

Steps like:
1. Ensure all updates are done to joomla, modules an plugins etc.
2. Install rs pro firewall(block certain countries ips from previous attacks.)
and I've enable all the features on the firewall configuration
3. Changed all passwords(ftp, joomla admin and db)

Ive managed to look at the logs and found something relating to the infected file.

Any idea how they got access to the website ?
