Most likely, login doesn't associate a username with a process until
after login has been completed, same for ftp except anonymous...

I'd start with xferlog ans see if anything interesting was
uploaded...assuming you still have any logs ...

Using find to find files that are recent for userid is often interesting..

I'd also look at the mashine you ssh from, ssh is considerably weakened if
someone has access to the matching keys..or if you set it up to not need a
password...
