| One of the great Social Media Facebook alert on attempts to spy on users. |
It has crumb that is Facebook, which owns 1.550 million souls, who is transformed into an information panel of espionage. But it is like this. A new notification so that users will have first-hand details when objects are illegitimate attempts to access and cyber attacks by government-funded groups such as the National Security Agency US. It's a threat for Social Media
In case there is mere suspicion about a compromised account, social network users warned by an alert notification form. In his attempt to introduce safeguards on the platform, now you try to bring positions with the users themselves, those who actually use it.
The service recognizes that if a user sees this notification does not mean that it is an indication that Facebook itself has been "hacked" in any way, it is possible that the device you are accessing your account is corrupted. "While we always take steps to ensure that we believe accounts were compromised, we decided to show additional information if we suspect that an attacker may have been spied on by the government," says Alex Stamos, the great Social Media Facebook security chief.
"Having a compromised account might indicate that your computer has been infected with malware. So be careful of using Social Media"
It will, however, notice that any user, although it has nothing to hide so apparent, never want to receive. For now, it is unknown if he has already entered into force. "Having a compromised account might indicate that your computer or mobile device has been infected with malware,so user should be carefull about their Social Media's account" stresses while since the American company is advised that, in the unlikely event of being alerted, users should remedy such as a change reinstatement password or computer systems.
For now, when Facebook detects that a user logs on from a different computer or browser (untrusted) sent an access code to the mobile phone to access the account, this being one of the mechanisms to try to prevent "hacking". Keep in mind that this platform has many personal and sensitive data to fall into the wrong hands.
Despite the attractiveness of the proposal, Facebook does not plan to share more information than mere warning. "To protect the integrity of our processes, we will explain how we attribute the attacks on the alleged attackers" he adds.
