Steps to protect ourselves on Facebook

Facebook is encouraging those users with very low security settings to upgrade their account to be more secure. The protection is meant to secure their account and personal information from spammers, malicious people and those with criminal intent. Ability to log out remotely, notification when a new device is used to log in, and prevention from friends who spam.

Some other means you can do to protect yourself and your family are as follows:

1. Accept friends whom you only really know

2. Review friends list periodically

3. Pay attention to Facebook's security notification

4. Avoid giving personal information out in Facebook conversations when other people you don't know comment and are involved.

Steps to protect ourselves on Facebook

Hello,

Facebook is now the biggest social media network. It is a rare thing that you ask someone and he/she doesn't have a Facebook account. Facebook is like your own neighbourhood. You have friends, co-workers, teachers, students in your list and its like another life. Now recently hacking became a serious threat to Facebook. Hackers are trying to steal many important information about them from their profile. That is why you need to have a strong security system for your account. To make your account secure –

• Verify email ID and then with a cell phone.
• Use a strong password with mixture of upper case letters and numeric.
• Give security questions and not down the answers.
• Never give your password to anyone.
• Set a login approval notification and enter approval of code from mobile.
• Don't accept friend requests of unknown people and stay away from sending to them.

I hope in this way you can have a better security of Facebook for you and your kids.
