Important point: Keep a strong password on social media, avoid opening unknown links.

In the era of increasing technology, social media has been considered an integral part of the lives of all people around the world. One of the reasons for this is that today, whether a child or an adult, everyone has become crazy about social media. Perhaps that is why India has the highest number of Facebook and Instagram users in the world. According to a recent report by Statista in January 2024, it was seen that there are about 367 million Facebook users and 362 million Instagram users in India.

Be careful about the password.

Always be very careful with the password and keep it very strong because this password is our very sensitive information, that is why it should not be shared with anyone. Understand from the points given below what kind of caution needs to be taken regarding the password.

If any person asks you about your password, be careful as if he is asking you for the password of social media or any other account.

 Never share your personal information with anyone who asks you to share your password through an email or phone call because social media companies or banks never ask for your password for identity verification.

Understand the website and always click on the link sent by trusted websites because scammers can lure you with an offer to click on a fake link or attachment. When you click on the wrong link while using the phone, your password can be hacked. Avoid this and do not click on links received through unwanted emails, social media chats or SMS.

From then on, always open your social media account on the official website or app only. Never use similar apps or third party apps. They can steal your data.

Keep yourself safe like this.

Use upper case, lower case and special characters in the password. For example, use @#&!/ and along with this, create a password in which no letter is repeated.

Create different passwords for all social media accounts. And the password of all accounts should be at least 12 to 16 characters long, while passwords of all important accounts should be changed every two months.

The password should not contain any word that you use frequently and which can be easily guessed.

Do not keep your password written in the phone, email or any diary. Find some other way to remember the password.
