Facebook has officially announced an extremely important measure taken for all people who have accounts within its social network, bringing to fulfillment something that should have happened a very long time ago. Facebook has announced that starting today it will notify its users about any kind of logs that are made through third-party applications, and together with these, the information shared with those will be disclosed.
Facebook implement this system because a warning system regarding logging in third-party applications has been requested for a long time, but also because this will increase the security of people's accounts, something also very important. If an account is compromised by hackers, when it is logged in a third-party application, Facebook will send an email to the account holder, so that he will know that there is a problem and that he must immediately change his password to secure the account.
Facebook: EXTREMELY IMPORTANT Measure for ALL People
Facebook completely surprisingly added to these notifications and information regarding the type of information that is being shared, something that, to be honest, I did not expect to see, but something that is necessary. Normally, those at Facebook did not display this kind of information for applications in which we log in to websites/applications other than their own, but now things are starting to become much more transparent, which is great.
Facebook will include in the notification emails a link to the menu through which we can control the applications that have access to our data, so that access can be immediately blocked by us. If an account is compromised by a hacker, we can immediately block his access to our data before changing the password, and thus we make sure that not much information is actually stolen by criminals.
Facebook has implemented this very important change right now, so everyone can benefit from it right now, so if you get emails like the one above, you know what they are for.
