TOP 7 MISTAKES IN SOCIAL NETWORKS

Filled under:

SOCIAL NETWORKS
As in any social network, Facebook is full of people who are completely familiar with the privacy settings. As for me, it's bad, because if, for example, a person is engaged in serious business, and uses the Facebook page to attract customers, then open the page is good, however, if the personal page is open to the public, it could lead to any consequences, up to hacking page.

Let's look at seven common errors of the average user:

A. Full date of birth
Why in the settings to specify the full date of birth?

Experts say that the information you place on your page, thieves can use. Collecting data about you from the network, you can easily find out when you leave the apartment, when you go to the store, etc. If you would like to congratulate you on such a special and rare occasion, place only the date and month.

Two. Do not write on the page of your imminent departure.
As well, you can hang from a sign on the door, "Gone to the store. I'll be in the evening. "Unfortunately, not only in our country have enough smart and savvy thieves. Why leave us not say, "How nice to be home .."? Maybe this is too much caution, but as the saying goes, "better safe than sorry."

Three. And again for a password.
I am not the first nor the last, and I, who talks about the importance of a strong password.Do not use general phrases, names, events, phone numbers when creating passwords!Owning at least some information about you, easily crack the page will not make. Try to use symbols such as #, $,%, &, and stuff like that.

4. Review the privacy settings.
Everyone has a certain social circle, is not it? Try to limit to the maximum number of users who accessed your personal photos, records, etc. If you find it difficult to understand the setting, please refer to our brief tutorial.

Five. Check 7 times, 1 time publish.
Employers, law enforcement officials and even insurers monitor the activity of your pages on social networks. So, try not to write anything for which you will be formally accused.

According to a study conducted in 2009 by Proofpoint, it was found that 8% of companies lay off their employees on a regular basis because of "improper use of social networking."

6. Stop communicating with friends in the timeline.
Want to discuss something important? Bring the discussion in private messages, since messages can trace the story of a breaking your page.

7. Not to mention their children who are under 13 years of age.
Want to show off the success of the child at the matinee, or can show photos of the first steps? Please, just do not mention about the young children in settings.

Every conscientious parent should know that social networks are a danger not only for you, but first and foremost for your children.
