Account hacks on Facebook and Instagram are down by over 30% globally this year—making it safer than ever for creators to do what they love. Here are a few recent updates on Facebook to keep your accounts safe:
👉 Faster, Simpler Account Recovery: You’ll now see the right recovery options at the right times, and we’re sending out improved SMS and email alerts about risky activity. If you still need help regaining access to your account, we now offer a streamlined entry point for both account and page access issues through https://www.facebook.com/hacked, making it easier to start the recovery process.
👉 Simple Steps to Stay Secure: Use the newly redesigned Security Checkup on Facebook to spot and fix potential security risks, like setting up Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and login alerts. You can also choose to sign in with your fingerprint, face, or device PIN for even stronger protection through passkeys, which we rolled out earlier this year on Facebook and Messenger.
👉 A centralized support hub: Getting help with your account should be simple and accessible. We recently launched a centralized hub on Facebook that brings support tools and options into one place. Within the support hub, you can now report an account issue, find quick answers with the help of Meta AI-powered search, and more.
