Facebook security is an important issue. As Facebook becomes increasingly popular, the incentive to steal a user’s Facebook Login becomes even greater. As a Facebook user, it’s your duty to become aware of the threat and do something about it.
The main concern is identity theft. If someone gains access to your Facebook account they have the ability to see massive amounts of private information about you such as who your friends are, your email address, your photos, and anything you’ve posted to Facebook. Even worse, they can communicate with your family and friends as if they were you.
Part of staying secure is knowing what information you’re sharing and with whom. Last month, Facebook launched new, simpler privacy settings, giving you more transparency and control over the information you share with applications and Facebook-integrated websites. In order to stay secure, you must use Facebook correctly and only share the information you intent to share with the people you want to share it woth.
