Simple Online Security for Social Media Accounts

This is just one step in a series created to help anyone improve their online security regardless of their technical knowledge. For more information, see our complete Simple Online Security series. 

If you have online accounts on every major platform, especially social media accounts, then you know how difficult it can be to manage the privacy settings on each of them. But it’s important to go through and audit these settings to ensure you’re not sharing information you don’t intend to share. In the case of most social networks, “private” means keeping your account private from other people, not from the company itself, which may sometimes change how it wants to use the data it collects from your activities. As always, make sure that each of these accounts has a unique password and two-factor authentication enabled.
