Protect yourself from the Facebook security breach

Following the news that 50 million people’s Facebook accounts have been hacked, here’s the social media giant’s advice on the next steps to take.

– 90 million accounts have been automatically logged out, but no one needs to change their passwords.

– If you are having difficulty logging back in – for example because of a forgotten password – you should visit Facebook’s help centre.

– If you have not been logged out automatically, but want to log out as a precaution, visit the “Security and Login“ section which lists all the places you are logged in to Facebook.

– Use the one-click option to log out of Facebook on all PCs and devices you may have accessed it on.
