The use of social networks has increased in such a way that today it is normal that more than 95% of people with whom we speak have an account on one of the available social network platforms. Undoubtedly one of the most famous is Facebook , not to mention the most, which despite the problems that have arisen continues with millions of active users. Security in these types of platforms is key to preserve both our privacy and our peace of mind..
There is no doubt that most of us use social networks in addition to informing of different news or viewing public profiles, to publish on our profile different photos, videos or stories of what we do or where we are going. We must bear in mind that we are uploading our personal information to a platform in which if we do not take the necessary security and privacy measures, we may run the risk that our information reaches unwanted hands.
In addition, a common problem that many people commit when using Facebook on their mobile device, is not logging out and this implies that if someone uses the computer they can access their profile and therefore everything that is seen and published there. It is important to know how to carry out this process, to close our session whenever we need it..
That is why we explain below how to do this through Chrome or from the Facebook App on Android or iPhone.
