3 strong steps to protect your facebook from hackers

Facebook has the largest social networking site on the web 2.0 is filled with haters and hackers who are ready to hijack your page and profiles....

There are many techniques they use in accomplishing this which I will talk about below so you will immediately secure your facebook profile, page or group.


Phishing

Recently I thought on some simple techniques you can use in hacking facebook with a wapka site, As it sounds, "fishing" is an act of cloning a fake site that looks like facebook and once you login through the page, your password and username or email will be sent to the attacker.

What to avoid!

  • The best way to escape this is by avoiding login in through any site you are not sure of that looks like facebook.
  • Make sure you type www.facebook.com on your address bar to login to your profile
  • Do not follow any link from your email inbox asking you to confirm your facebook account.

Key-logger

Keylogger is another hacking techniques use in hacking people's password by installing the software in victim's pc and this records every keystroke in the system this software is installed

What to avoid

  • Avoid downloading of software from suspicious website
  • Dont allow strangers to tamper with your computer
  • Never click any link you dont know the sender

Social Engineering

Probably, this hacking system works for those who are careless. This is a way of asking the victim some personal questions on the social platform while posing as a friend.

What to avoid

You probably know what to avoid, you know you will need to avoid telling people you dont know by person your personal details on social platform especially facebook. Details like date of birth, Mother town or equivalent might be used in guessing or engineering your password.

There are other ways in which hackers and attackers used in breaking into your facebook security. I will tell you more about this later tomorrow.
