How To Stop Facebook Hackers, Scammers And Thieves
Sophos recommends that you get more selective about your friend list and who you show your full profile to, among other things.
We’ve noticed fewer security snafus on Facebook this past quarter, but that’s probably because we happen to be following most recommendations about security.
Sophos recommends in its half-year report on security issues that you:
- Read the Facebook’s official guide to privacy;
- Monitor and adjust your Facebook privacy settings;
- Get more selective about sending and accepting friend requests;
- Show “limited friends” a cut-down version of your profile, and
- Disable all options in the security, privacy and e-mail notifications section, then re-enable them one by one, upon careful review.
