How to Use Facebook Safely

Your Facebook account probably contains private information you don't want to fall into the hands of strangers, from private messages exchanged with friends to photo albums. Protect your privacy by preventing unauthorized access to your account and editing your Facebook privacy settings.


Prevent Unauthorized Access

Prevent users from logging in to your account without your consent by using a strong password and editing your Facebook security settings.

Choose a Secure Password
Malicious users employ a variety of techniques to guess your Facebook password, from trying to log in to your account using passwords based on your personal information -- such as your date of birth or maiden name -- to running scripts that try a list of hundreds or thousands of commonly used passwords in sequence. To prevent those users from successfully using such techniques to log in to your account, change your current password to a more secure one.

Tip

Secure passwords typically contain a mix of numbers and letters. In addition, they should preferably not contain common English words or words that a malicious user can easily guess. For more information about choosing a secure password, visit this page on Boston University's website.

Change your current Facebook password by visiting the General Account Settings page and clicking Edit next to Password.
