What we have to do when an account get compromised??
Shall we only tag it or create a flag? If we create a flag want type of flag is suitable??
Maybe we need a new flag only for hacked/lost accounts??
Thoughts?

That wouldn't be necessary but flag for short term, maybe.
Most of the time, the owner create alt account and makes a thread in meta about the incident and explains briefly about everything.
Sometimes with inactive accounts, there's no one to report these incidents, so there's no way to know unless someone's paying close attention to that particular account carefully which doesn't happen for ignorant Accounts. But the forum does have an inactivity indicator, so this can be taken into consideration as well.
What's could be done is that DT1 or DT2 or maybe are given special privileges to flag accounts with strange behaviour recently based on their post and after a thorough personal investigation and should be visible to everyone that trust those DT members.
If the Flag idea is brought to reality, then i suggest making 2 flags.
Yellow for Uncertain regarding hacked account
Red for sure hacked account.
And if x number of DT members approve it then the tag is visible to everyone.
And if flag idea isn't brought to life then, Everything's already going smooth already based on the current system.
