Facebook Launches Verification Program to Increase User Trust in Applications

Originally announced this summer at Facebook’s f8 developer conference, Facebook today is formally launching its Application Verification program designed to certify applications that adhere to Facebook’s guiding principles and goals for the Platform.

Starting today, application developers can apply for verification. Facebook has formed a team that will review applications “to ensure they satisfy the company’s guiding principles around security, respect and transparency, and have demonstrated commitment to compliance with Platform policies.”

After an application has been initially submitted, it will enter a rolling approval process.
