The present generation is hooked to social media. Like it or not, they feel incomplete without it. Social media is less of a social interaction site but a way of projecting them self to the world. A considerable amount of time is spent on social media as all have multiple social media options. It is important to keep these accounts secure so that they are not hacked and misused. A lot of people are preying the social media sites looking for innocent targets to exploit.

I will share some tips on safeguarding your social media sites.

Don’t save password in public devices

Saving password is an easy way to log in to your account as we need not remember and type it every time we log in. While logging in this is the first thing google asks, do you want to save your password? And routinely we accept it. When in a public computer then also we may inadvertently click ok for it. So be careful when accessing social media or any sites from a public computer or even your friend’s device.

Log out

Always log out when the work is done, be it your device or a public device. That way, your account will be more secure. Have patience to log in the next time. Hackers have ingenious ways to hack your account so you have to take all precautions. Don’t make your e mail address or phone number known to those who do not require as these can be used to retrieve your log in information.

2 factor authentication

Always go for 2 factor authentication, it is a double layer of protection. Most of use prefer the direct way of log in without this but then you are making yourself more susceptible to hacking. There is google 2 factor authentication or you can go for receiving a second layer of. in your e mail or phone number.

Clean up browser regularly

If you frequently visit unsecured or shady websites like porn etc then you should clean up the browser regularly to prevent unwanted virus and phishing attacks. An adware removing tool is helpful in this regard.
