Facebook was attacked by hackers. Nearly 50 million user accounts were affected in this incident. Hackers let people see their profile which looks like their friends’ profile.\u00a0 Hackers exploited a weakness in the tool to gain access to digital keys that let people access Facebook from a personal device without having to re-enter a password. The keys can be used by hackers to tack over the accounts. After the incident, there are three thins we need to do. First is to audit your devices. If you see you account login on a unfamiliar device or location, click “Remove” to remove the devices out of the account. Second is to change your password. Hackers may gain the passwords to access the accounts, so changing password is needed. Last is to turn on the two-factor authentication\u00a0 Using the codes sent by text message to logon the accounts. That makes others hard to logon your account even though they have the password.<\/p>\n
