Five Facebook Safety Tips

Facebook is really a big network now. Mostly we are all now on Facebook making it one of the largest social network in the world. We always share many things on Facebook. But how many of you really care about the privacy and the data you share with the Facebook? The number is less. We don’t care about the privacy and the data we give to the Facebook and hence as the result we fall in a trap. To avoid these things, I am going to show you five tips which will surely help you to keep your account safe. Remember, I am not giving tips only for Facebook. You can apply this in every account you maintain especially financial accounts. So read on and try to keep your account safe from hackers.

Change Password Frequently.

Don’t forget about password after setting up any account. Keep changing your password frequently. Try to change your password weekly or monthly. Also, make sure that you keep a strong password. Never keep your password simple like your name, birth date, mobile number etc. Because these can be easily known by your friends. This type of hacking is known as password guessing. Believe me, it sometimes works perfectly. So try to keep your password strong.

Be Safe From Phishing Attack

Be safe from phishing

Phishing is a type of hacking account. It is same as fishing. Hacker will try to make you victim by his fake login page which will look like same as Facebook. Then he may tell you to log in and if you log in then your data will be on hacker’s database and he can control your account. Seems very dangerous right? It happens to many people. So I will tell you how you can be safe. Whenever you log in, just see your address bar once. If you find facebook.com or any official site name which you are logging then it is safe. Other than that don’t try to login. Just type facebook.com and then login. I bet many of you was not knowing this before. Next time you log in try to implement this habit. It is simple and can help you to be safe.

Use Virtual keyboard

Using virtual keyboard will add more safety to your account. If hacker installed a key logging software on your system then typing on keyboard will leave you helpless afterwards. So try to type in on screen keyboard whenever you login on financial websites. To open screen keyboard just go to RUN by pressing Windows key and R simultaneously. After that type “osk” (without quotes) and type your password from that. It is simple, safe and fast.

Link Your Alternate Mail

Link Email and Number

Always try to link alternate IM names, mail and phone number on your account. If you don’t want to show your details to your friends then change privacy settings on Facebook. Your account will be safe if you practice this. Facebook can contact you on these mail and number to recover your account if it is stolen. Also keep checking your Facebook active account log in page.

Privacy is Must

Facebook Privacy for Information

In Facebook, you must take care of your privacy settings. These are very much important. Keep your all updates limited to friends. Show only relevant information publicly. Never post statuses of future vacations. This will be like invitation to robbers in your house. Set the privacy of mobile number and mail to “only me”. This will help to keep your account safe. Also try to accept friends you know. Facebook clearly states that it is not the platform for making new friends. So beware. Facebook is always in safer side. You have to think how to use it.

I think these tips will help you to keep your account safe. Try this and be safe. Tell your friends too to do this. Share with your friends.

Happy Browsing.
