With file scan I noticed that the configuation.php file has been changed regarding date and time of file and the parameter 'secret'. Do you have some idea what that may mean and what may be the consequences?

Have you restored your site recently? When you are restoring a backup of your site the restoration script creates a new, random value for the "secret" parameter. The same may have happened in some circumstances if you recently updated Joomla.
The "secret" parameter is different on each site and it's used to randomize some information in your Joomla installation. Overall I would not be alarmed if that's the only thing which is reported changed OR if that happened after restoring a backup or updating your site.

Then there's nothing to worry about. Changing the $secret is normal and desired when you are restoring a backup.
