How To Secure Facebook Account From Hackers

Posted on Friday, 5 April 2013 by


Facebook is always at the top of Hacker's list due to its large popularity, ease to use, connects large number of people,  large collection of applications, many more. Facebook was launched in 2004, as of January 2011, it had more than 600 million active user. A hacker can get many useful information about anyone with Hacking his or her Facebook Account and can destroy anyones social life with it. Due to large number of attacks on Facebook everyday, it is trying to deeply secure its data from attackers. Many new awesome security feature had been built to secure its users, but loophole is always there.

Some days before Facebook had built a new security feature, it is Login Approval  similar to 2-Step Verification. As I have already mentioned a post about 2-step verification, if you have read that post then you must have some knowledge about it. Anyways back to the post.

What is Login Approval?

Login Approvals is an opt-in security feature similar to Login Notifications, but with an extra security step. With Login Approvals, each time you try to access your Facebook account from an unrecognized device (ex: any computer or mobile phone you haven't named and saved to your Facebook account), you will first have to enter a security code that's been sent to your mobile phone. 

How to turn on Login Approval?

To turn on Login Approval in Facebook
  • Go to your Account Settings page and select the change option next to Account Security.
  • Check the box under Login Approval ( If you don’t have a mobile phone number linked to your Facebook account, you will need to add one).
  • If you are haven't named the device you are on, you will be prompted to do so when you turn on Login Approvals. Do not click the "Save this device" option if you are using a public device (ex: a friend’s phone, a library computer). Note that all of the devices linked to your Facebook account (ex: your recognized devices) are listed under the Login Approvals section.
What will happen after turning on the Login Approval?
After turning on this feature whenever you will login to your Facebook Account from any other unrecognized devices you will be ask to enter a security code which will be sent to your mobile. 


Google 2-Step Verification V/S Facebook Login Approval?
Google 2-Step verification is far most better than Facebook Login Approval because Google 2-Step verification also provide some backup codes in case of mobile loss or other and  in case when you can't receive verification code due to some network problem or else, you can also get a call from Google informing you about the verification codes, as compared to Facebook Login Approval. Facebook may also work hard to compete with Google 2-Step Verification.
 
I hope you really enjoy it this post !!

How to recover your deleted files from memory card | Recover Deleted Pictures and Files from Memory Cards

by

My Had Accidently Deleted quite a few recent pics from my Nokia N97 Memory Card and He was feeling pretty much disgraced about that. We recently went for an excellent trip, captured all those fun moments in the camera and yes if those memories get deleted, everyone will feel disgusted about that. It is at that time, I googled and finally found a recovery software that not only recovered ALL THE PICTURES from my memory card but also it was absolutely FREE to use as well. Amazing right?

PC Inspector Smart Recovery is just the right software that can do wonders for you. Believe me, it works perfectly fine although takes a bit of time (when I say “bit of time” that means hours and hours…) to recover all those accidently deleted pictures and files. The software is very easy to use and even if you are not a computer savvy person, you can use it without much discomfort.

PC INSPECTOR Smart Recovery works with Flash Card™, Smart Media™, SONY Memory Stick™, IBM™ Micro Drive, Multimedia Card, Secure Digital Card or any other data carrier for Digital Cameras. I have tried this software on my Phone Memory Card as well and it recovered all the pictures that got accidently deleted.
If you have unintentionally deleted or formatted pictures, videos or sound files on your data carrier or have pulled it out during a write operation, no matter – PC INSPECTOR smart recovery can easily, quickly and absolutely reliably reconstruct the lost data. It supports the following picture formats: .jpg, .amr, .tif, .bmp, .gif, Canon .crw , Fuji .raf , RICOH .raw, Olympus .orf (E-XX), Olympus .orf (C5050), Nokia 3gp, Kodak .dcr, Minolta .mrw, Nikon .nef (D1H/D1X), Nikon .nef (D2H/D2X), Nikon .nef (E5000/E5700), Sigma – Foveon .x3f, mp4, QuickTime .mov (Konica Minolta). Video files in .avi, QuickTime .mov format and audio files in .wav, .dss format can also be recovered.
Suggestions – If you have deleted the files by mistake and want to recover most of those, PLEASE STOP TAKING ANY MORE PICTURES from your digital camera or mobile phone. That’s because the more you write new data on your memory card, the chances of recovering old and deleted data becomes less.
