How to Prevent Facebook Hacking
The social networking site
Facebook boasts hundreds of
millions of users located all over
the world. Facebook makes
connecting with old high school
friends, distant family members
and online acquaintances easy and
attractive. However, with so many
people collected in one online
place, Facebook hackers can
wreak havoc on unsuspecting
users. Facebook hacking can range
from playing jokes on people to
stealing personal information for
criminal purposes.
App Security
Games and other applications present perhaps the greatest security risk on Facebook. Anyone with basic programming knowledge can write a Facebook app; this can sometimes result in poorly designed applications. Since these poorly designed apps may not use authentication or other basic security features, they become easy targets for hackers and cyber criminals. Limit your app use to known, reputable sources to greatly improve your Facebook account's security.
