Tips to Protect Your Facebook Account from Cyber Crimes

Did you know that more than 20 percent of newsfeed links on Facebook currently open viruses? This is what ZoneAlarm claimed in their latest infographic that talks about the security at the world’s most popular social network site, Facebook.
In the “Facebook : A Prime Target for Cybercrime” infographic, ZoneAlarm shows you some statistics about Facebook users, information about the cyber crimes that hit Facebook and outlines six simple safety measurements that you can take to keep yourself safe while using Facebook.

6 Tips to Protect Your Facebook Account

  1. Create a strong password.
  2. Don’t accept unknown friend requests.
  3. Monitor what your friends are sending and sharing with you.
  4. Turn on HTTPS:// browsing on your Facebook settings.
  5. Don’t click on suspicious links.
  6. And last but not least, is to use  ZoneAlarm SocialGuard. It protects up to five Facebook accounts at a time. $19.99 for 1 year subscription. (This is the reason this infographic is made in the first place).
