Facebook, the world's largest social media platform, offers special security benefits to politicians, as well as stars and journalists next year. Citing the company's cybersecurity chief Nathaniel Gleicher, Axios said security token support for mobile users would also be provided from next year.
Stars and journalists as well as people at risk who are preparing for the big election will also be given the facility called 'Facebook Protect'. Facebook says token service will be provided to users who access social media using portable devices. This will be available to 'public figure' people. That means those who have more fan-followers and are popular.
In addition to the two-factor authentication system under Facebook Protect, there will be a facility to know in real time if there is a hacking attempt. Then Facebook will prevent hacking by itself.
Until now, this benefit has only been applied to US politicians, government agencies, election officials, and blue tick (blue badge) accounts.
Facebook has been providing such security measures since 2016. At the same time, they have added several features to ensure the safety of the general public. Changed design. Their new design is even more secure, according to Facebook authorities.
