Facebook Business Account security issue

Similar to Youtube, AdBreak is a program to make money by Uploading Videos and using Facebook ads. Therefore, you must invest in content for your Page that is rich and has many views. You can refer to the article How to make money from Facebook’s Ad Breaks. Besides, you must know how to secure your Facebook Business Account.

Security is a basic step that 90% of newbies pay little attention to. Those of you who are determined to fight for the long term, don’t skip this article even though it’s a bit long. Masters, if you have any experience, please comment or add.

Facebook Business Account security issue

Step 1: Hide owner information on pages that have monetization enabled.

Step 2: Hide information from Facebook that owns the page. Information to hide: date of birth, email, phone number…

Step 3: Suggested attaching 1-2 nicks of relatives in case of being hacked and detected promptly. This will help you get your account back, but will not help you operate the page using your relative’s account.

Step 4: Install 2FA code (2-layer authentication): This is 1 OF THE 2 strongest ways to optimize security at the present time.

Those who have ever invested in bitcoin and have accounts on crypto, forex, and derivatives exchanges almost understand it. How to do it: Settings -> Security and login -> 2-factor authentication

• Method 1 (send code to phone number): This method is ok but I don’t recommend it. Because losing your phone can also cause you to lose your page.
• Method 2 (Install Google Authentication/Authy): this method is best. GA/A is Google’s security application, high trust. Currently, there have been no cases of being hacked by GA/A.

You can download it on Appstore or Android, use it on your phone, there is a fingerprint scanner and a 4-digit pass. Can be used on phones, Windows, Mac… (this solves the case of losing your phone). After installation, you log in to your Facebook account and will need a 6-digit code. That code is only available on the App, it’s a bit inconvenient at first when you’re not used to it, but if you spend money you’ll get used to it.

How to secure using Google Authentication/Authy

This security method applies to both personal Facebook and Facebook Business Accounts.

You should do this on your phone and laptop:

Download 1 of 2 Apps using the link below:

Click the (+) button to add an account (on the phone) -> a QR scan will appear. Going to 2FA settings on Facebook (on Laptop) will display a QR code (or a series of codes to install the application for laptop, mac) -> Use your phone to scan that code -> then enter the 6-digit code into Facebook on Laptop-> done.

From now on, every time you log in to Facebook on a strange device, you will need a 6-digit code on this app.

Secure Facebook with OpenPGP Email encryption

Extremely strong security – extremely confusing but absolutely optimal security: On OpenPGP (Pretty Good Private). This feature is called “EMAIL ENCRYPTION”. By encoding data from point A -> point B from “hello” to “ac5d3hgndgkj”.

Anyone who studies blockchain Hash and Bitcoin mining algorithm will understand this. Basically there is this code (called private key). If a hacker hacks your email, they will not be able to read the information in the email. For example, Facebook sends me emails such as: newly changed password or notifications about income from the page, etc. but only if you have one private key just read it.

Currently, there are apps like Mailvelope, Thunderbird that support key reading.. If anyone has ever seen a real movie about former intelligence agent Snowden revealing the Obama-era US’s total control over user behavior, he is the one who recommends people to use it. You should install this.

P/s: However, Open PGP is also a double-edged sword. If you’re not careful, it’s exposed private key is to lose everything. The best way is to save it on a separate computer or write it down on a piece of paper and only you will know, live and die with it.

In conclusion, people should not take Facebook Business Account security lightly. It is necessary to pay attention and consider optimizing security as a basic step before entering the profession. Just try to sit and think that one fine day, your income of 20-30k$ a month will disappear for no apparent reason. At that time, I understood how needy the saying “if you lose a cow, you have to build a barn” is.
