Facebook has added a new feature to warn users that there is a suspicion that their profile is under attack by a nation – state.
Alex Stamos, chief security officer at Facebook, posted a “notification for targeted attacks” that explains the social media site “will notify you if we believe your account has been targeted or compromised by an attacker suspected of working on behalf of a nation-state.”
In order to secure a compromised account, Facebook has implemented the “additional warning … because these types of attacks tend to be more advanced and dangerous than others, and we strongly encourage affected people to take the actions necessary to secure all of their online accounts.”
And yet, Stamos cautions: “To protect the integrity of our methods and processes, we often won’t be able to explain how we attribute certain attacks to suspected attackers. That said, we plan to use this warning only in situations where the evidence strongly supports our conclusion.”
To protect users, Facebook will turn on the “login approvals” feature.
Facebook will send the compromised account user specific codes so that one particular user can access the profile from multiple locations: pc, app, or new device.
