Social Media Security...
Many people forget that with social media, although they are not meeting with people face-to-face, revealing too much information about oneself could still lead to dangerous situations, such as social engineering attacks.
1. Don’t Reveal Location:
This seems like an issue of common sense, but many need to be reminded that revealing your location to strangers is never a good idea. Some social media sites require that you input your location, and if that’s the case, you can use your creativity to make a fake location or input one a city/state different from where you are actually located.
2. Create a Private Profile:
Although social media is a useful way of networking professionally and promoting your business, failing to properly manage your profile and privacy settings could have consequences that you cannot undo.
3. Don’t Link Accounts:
Although linking social media accounts may be a convenience to you, it is making it easier for cybercriminals to find you. It is especially important that you don’t link your personal accounts with your business accounts. Some content on one of your social media sites may not be appropriate for content on another site
