Some **Facebook security tips** to access your account securely.

1. **Use a Strong Password**

- Use a strong, unique password with a mix of uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols. Do not set something easily guessable, like the name or birth date.

2. **Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)**

- Use a two-factor authentication (2FA) process in the security settings to add another layer of protection. It will send a verification code to your mobile number or email every time you log in from an unfamiliar device.

3. **Be Careful of Third-Party Apps**

- Limit and review third-party apps connected to your Facebook account by revoking access to any apps you no longer use or trust from the "Apps and Websites" under Settings.

4. **Check for Suspicious Activity on Your Account**

5. **Keep Your Email and Phone Number Updated**

- Keep it up-to-date, so it is easier to recover the account if you get locked out or if there is some suspicious activity.

6. **Scheme of Phishing**

- Do not fall for any phony message or link that appears to be from a Facebook source. Always check upon the schemes of scammers, and do not click on links about which you have doubts. Facebook never asks for your password through email.

7. **Privacy Settings Review on Regular Basis**

- Over time, check the privacy settings and make any adjustments needed to ensure who can see your posts, friend list, or other personal info. Sharing your posts with "Friends" or "Only Me" would help add privacy.

8. **Log Out from Any Shared Device**

- Always log out from Facebook when you use public or shared computers/devices. You may also wish to use the "Log Out of All Sessions" feature in your security settings for peace of mind

9. Set Up Login Alerts

Configure login alerts to advise you when your account is accessed from a new device or location. This enables quick recognition of unauthorized access.

10. Use Trusted Contacts for Account Recovery

Add trusted contacts in case you get locked out of your account; these friends can help you recover your account if you're unable to access it.
