Is it possible to change the last modification date for files?

is it possible to change the last modification date for files? My hosting account has been hacked today and scan shows a lot of different domains get compromised. This account has been scanned two months ago by my hosting company and everything was fine, but today I have noticed that someone added

eval(gzinflate(base64_decode

containing malicious code. I'm bit confuse now as the last modification dates for all of the files are ranging from various months and days within 2012 and 2013. Any ideas? 8-O

Yes, it is possible to change the modification date. If you tell me what platform your site is hosted on, I'll tell you how they could have done it.

Sure for example on unix you can simply use "touch".
