Step By step guide To Protect Your Facebook Account From Hacking

 Set Up Login Approvals

Even if someone manages to obtain knowledge of your password, there is still a chance that you will be able to access your account. A login approval, which can be configured in your Facebook profile, provides an additional degree of safety that is quite beneficial.
A login permission can be transmitted straight to a device, such a smartphone, that you always have on you and keep with you.

Simply navigate to Settings > Security > Login Approvals in order to activate this handy security feature, and you will see it listed there. To require a login code to access your account from unknown browsers, choose the checkbox next to "Require a login code." After that, you will be given a selection of options to choose where you want to transmit the login approval code, including an option to acquire codes even if you do not have your phone with you at the time.

The easiest way to learn how to keep your Facebook account secure is to never accept friend requests from people you aren't already familiar with. On Facebook, ANYONE can make an account, and that account can then be used to try to defraud you, steal your identity, or do something even worse.
