4 Ways to Secure Your Facebook Account

Are you afraid that somebody will hack your Facebook Accounts? If you run a business from Facebook that will be a very serious problem.
Here are some tips to secure your Facebook accounts:

1. Be Paranoid
Sometimes be paranoid is not bad at all. Especially if it is about security. Don't click any links offered to you before you know exactly where the link will take you.
There are some services that will short url. Unfortunately they sort all kind of url, including the bad ones. If you got url like "www.shorturl.com/asdfj3" do you know what kind of website you will be taken?

Always ask your friend about the url given to you. There are posibilities that your friend didn't send the link but somebody hacked his account or he add some malicious Facebook application that send the link.

2. Leave No Trace
If you are using public internet facility, always leave no trace when you left the internet facility. You should logoff from Facebook and also clear the browser cookies and history.
In Firefox you can use Private Browsing mode in Tools-Start Private Browsing menu. You can also press Control-Shift-Del to clear browser history and cookies.
The easiest way to clear your tracks is with CCleaner.

3. Trust No Email
Hacker can easily send an email to you and pretend that the sender is Facebook. They can ask you to enter some dangerous links. Facebook don't need to send you email to make you entering your login and password.
You should only enter Facebook with www.facebook.com or lite.facebook.com or m.facebook.com.

4. Use Crazy-and-Cannot-Be-Guessed Password
There were times that "123" or "abc" is strong enough for a password. But you cannot use that kind of password now. Hacker can use dictionary to guess your password. If dictionary fails they can "brute force attack" your password. The "brute force attack" is guessing every single letter from your password until it revealed.
Facebook has increased its security so hacker cannot "brute force attack" your password because if the password they entered is wrong for a few times your account is locked.
The easies way to generate and store unique password like "asDf823lazaAdsj3" is using KeePass.

Have a safe Facebook sessions!
