Hacking of accounts in social networks aren’t such a rarity. That’s why many experts recommend taking care of the security of your account in advance, especially if this account brings you income or have important information.
Let’s see how exactly you can protect yourself from scammers.
Have a unique password
It seems very simple, but if the account is valueable for you, then it would be better to choose a unique complex password for it. Ideally, the password should be a set of numbers and letters, as well as symbols inside. The more complex the password, the more difficult it’s to guess.
Example of an ideal password: Hh)q-%H1hk41dQ
Have a unique mail (or phone) for account registration
Your account must be linked to an email or phone number that only you’ll know about. Mail or phone shouldn’t be used to receive commercial offers, and therefore shouldn’t be posted anywhere. After all, to enter your account you need only two types of data: an email (or phone) and a password. If you publish the first part, then half the work will be done for the scammers.
Set up two-factor authentication
Two-factor authentication is offered by many social networks. This protection method sends an SMS to your phone or an email when you try to log into your account to confirm the action. Two-factor authentication greatly increases the security of your account. Moreover, in case of a false login attempt, you will be immediately notified about it.
Don’t install programs from suspicious sources
If you don’t want data leaked from your devices, then don’t use software that you’re not 100% sure of. Ideally, at least occasionally check your device with an antivirus.
Be careful while using public Wi-Fi networks
Such connections aren’t secure, which means that your connection to free public wi-fi can be traced. This means that potential scammers can track which sites you go to, as well as what data you enter there. If you want to protect yourself from possible fraud as much as possible, then don’t use public wi-fi networks if you plan to enter any private data or enter your accounts.
Don’t enter login information on third-party sites
Most often, such data can be requested by companies engaged in promotion in social networks. They need this data to promote your account, but such firms may not always be honest with you. Therefore, don’t enter data and don’t provide it to third parties if you aren’t100% sure of their reliability.
