今天的Facebook(Facebook)是最受欢迎的网站之一，也是最受攻击的网站之一。但是，只要有一些谨慎和常识，您就可以保持绝对安全并继续享受它！下面列出了一些保护您的隐私和Facebook帐户的基本技巧。
如何保护您的 Facebook 帐户
1]首先(First)，使用强密码
您可能已经听过这句话一百万次了，但每天仍有数千个帐户因为密码薄弱而遭到入侵。这是为什么？那是因为大多数人不知道如何确定他们的密码是弱密码还是强密码。因此(Thus)，您可能认为您的密码很强大，而实际上它太弱了。
以下是选择强密码(choose a strong password)的一些提示：
- 不要使用与您相关的词，因为如今的黑客使用一种称为社会工程的技术来猜测您的密码。所以你最喜欢的报价或书名可能不是最好的密码。最有效的方法是使用非字典词。
- 最好有足够长的密码（8 个或更多字符）。
- 它应该是混合大小写，并且应该包括字母数字和特殊字符。

2]使用适当的隐私设置
Facebook最近因其令人困惑的隐私设置而受到严厉批评。压力如此之大，以至于Facebook团队不得不彻底修改设置以使其更加用户友好。现在您可以从预先配置的设置列表中进行选择，例如“所有人”(Everyone”)、“朋友的朋友”(Friends of friends”)、“仅限朋友”( “Friends only”)和“推荐”(Recommended” )，也可以根据需要进行自定义。
您可以使用推荐的设置，同时牢记以下几点：
如果您的朋友列表中包含您不太了解的人，那么您应该更改您的隐私设置，以便只有您信任的人才能查看重要的个人详细信息。
- 首先，通过单击帐户（位于(Account)Facebook页面右上角）进入隐私设置(Privacy Settings)页面，然后选择隐私设置(Privacy Settings)。
- 现在单击自定义设置。通过选择下拉框编辑联系信息下的设置并选择(Contact)自定义(Custom)。
您可以选择特定用户，也可以通过选择“仅限我”来选择对所有人隐藏它。
- 将标记的照片保密。按照以上步骤进入隐私设置(Settings)的自定义页面。
- 在“其他人共享的内容”下，单击“我标记的照片(Photos)和视频”旁边的下拉框，然后选择所需的选项。

- 为此，请转到Settings > Security > Where您登录的位置”。
- 对于任何不熟悉的设备或位置，单击结束活动。(Activity)
5]小心Facebook应用
Facebook应用程序使用起来可能很有趣，但它们也会构成窃取您信息的威胁。现在不要误会我的意思——并不是所有的Facebook应用程序都不错。但也不是所有的都不好！因此，在允许任何新应用程序之前，请务必谨慎行事。删除不再需要的应用程序。您可以通过点击帐户(Account)进入“应用程序设置”页面，然后选择“应用程序设置”来查看所有已安装的应用程序。

How to secure your Facebook account from hackers
Facebook today iѕ one of the most popular websitеs and one of the most attacked too. But with some cаution and common-sense, you can stay absolutely safe and continue to enjoy it! Here’s a list of a few basic tips to safeguаrd your privаcy as well аs уoυr Facebook account.
How to secure your Facebook account
1] First and foremost, use a strong password
You might have heard this a million times but still, thousands of accounts are compromised every day because of weak passwords. Why is that? That’s because most people don’t know how to determine whether their password is weak or strong. Thus you might think that your password is strong while in reality, it would be too weak.
Here are a few tips to choose a strong password:
- Don’t use a word that is connected to you because these days’ hackers use a technique called social engineering to guess your password. So your favorite quote or book title may not be the best password. The most effective way is to use a non-dictionary word.
- It’s good to have a password that is sufficiently long (8 or more characters).
- It should be a mixed case and should include alphanumeric and special characters.

2] Use proper Privacy Settings
Facebook had recently come under heavy criticisms due to its confusing privacy settings. The pressure was so high that the Facebook team had to overhaul the settings to make it more user friendly. Now you can select from a list of preconfigured settings such as “Everyone”, “Friends of friends”, “Friends only” and “Recommended” apart from customizing it as you wish.
You can use the recommended settings with the below points in mind:
If your Friends list includes people whom you don’t know well, then you should change your privacy settings so that only people whom you trust can view important and personal details.
- For that first, go to the Privacy Settings page by clicking Account (found on the top right corner of the Facebook page) and select Privacy Settings.
- Now click customize settings. Edit the settings under Contact information by selecting the drop-down box and select Custom.
You can either select a specific user or choose to hide it from everyone by selecting “Only Me”.
- Keep the tagged photos private. Follow the above steps to go to the customization page of privacy Settings.
- Under “Things others share” click the drop-down box next to “Photos and videos I’m tagged in” and select the desired option.

Never click suspicious links, even if they appear to come from a friend or a company you know or from a Facebook ad.
4] Enable Login Alerts
You might want to enable Login Alerts and See Who’s Logged Into Your Account.
- To do this, go to Settings > Security > Where You’re Logged In.
- Click End Activity for any unfamiliar devices or locations.
5] Be careful of Facebook Apps
Facebook apps might be fun to use but they also pose a threat of stealing your information. Now don’t get me wrong – not all of the Facebook apps are not bad. But not all of them are not good either! So always exercise caution before allowing any new application. Remove apps that you don’t need anymore. You can view all the installed apps by going to the “Application Settings” page by clicking Account and then selecting “Application Settings”.
Identity fraudsters target Facebook and other social networking sites to harvest information about you. So please do take your Facebook privacy settings very seriously. Follow these basic tips and you can enjoy safe “Facebooking”!
