Secure Browsing: Always enable this setting. This setting will encrypt all sent data to Facebook. This option is best to secure your data specially when you are in wireless connection or public network.
Login Notifications: Most of us keep this setting disable, but for the better security it’s important to enable by checking one of the options whether Email or text message. After enabling this feature, you will be notified whenever you use any devices or computer that you haven’t used before.
Login Approvals : Whenever you tried to login account from any unknown devices or the computer that you haven’t used before, Facebook will ask for the security code to access the account. This can be done if you enable this setting. As per security view, if third person try to access your account, even if they know the account password, they can’t access your account until and unless they provide security code.
App Passwords: Using app passwords can help to keep Facebook Password safe and secure. This is useful if you have turned on Login Approvals.
