How to daily scan server for WordPress Virus and Malware?

Hi,

I host some WordPress websites on an Ubuntu 20.04 server and recently my hosting provider blocked my server, because it found malware/phishing on one of the websites:

https://mydomain.com/wp-content/ae/ar/amxqr/NV6588123/

I was given temporary access and deleted all malware files, updated WordPress/Plugins. Provider unblock the server; all is fine now. But… I want to prevent the chance of this happen in the future.

So, are there any tools / scripts that I can run daily using a cronjob that scans my entire server for malware and virus? Specially the ones affecting mostly WordPress websites?

Any advice to have a daily routine for check / scan, is welcome. Thanks!
