Facebook official security guide

Recently Facebook released - 14 pages in all - Facebook Security Guide, written by former Senior Director of Internet Safety at Symantec Linda McCarthy, security research engineer at Purdue University Keith Watson and teacher and editor Denise Weldon-Siviy, offers tips on:
  •  Protecting your Facebook account
  • Avoiding the scammers (very helpful examples of the most popular Facebook scams)
  • Using advanced security settings (one-time passwords, secure browsing, singel sign-on, social authentication, etc.)
  • Recovering a hacked Facebook account
  • Stopping imposters.


Written in a manner understandable to anyone and everyone, it should be a required read for everybody who begins using the social network and for many old users who are ignorant of the fact that they need protection.
