SOCIAL NETWORKING SAFETY TIPS
Information below is brought to you by the Computer Crime Investigative Unit, U.S. Army Criminal Investigation Command. Download Flyer »

OVERVIEW:

Social Media allows people to interact with others with similar interests or backgrounds at a faster more convenient setting, online, underscoring the need to understand potential risks associated. A person’s online activities may inadvertently expose excessive information about their identity, location, relationships, and affiliations, creating an increased risk of identity theft, stalking, or targeted violence. A safer social networking experience is available by accepting some basic assumptions and following a few recommendations.

ASSUMPTIONS:

• Once something is posted on a social networking site, it can quickly spread. No amount of effort will erase it – the Internet does not forget.
• You are not anonymous on the Internet.
• There are people on the Internet who are not who they purport to be and will take advantage of you if afforded the opportunity.
• Participating in more social networking sites increases your attack surface and overall risk.
• Everyone on the Internet can see what you post, from where you post it, who your friends and associates are, the comments your friends make and your “witty” replies.
• An embarrassing comment or image will come back to haunt you…one day…when you least expect it…at the least opportune time.
• There is a complete record of your online activity...somewhere

RECOMMENDATIONS:

• Do not post anything you would be embarrassed to see on the evening news.
• Do not accept friend/follower requests from anyone you do not know; independently verify identities.
• Avoid using third-party applications; if needed, do not allow them to access your social networking accounts, friends list or address books.
• Do not post personally identifiable information.
• Be cautious about the images you post. What is in them may be more revealing than who is in them. Images posted over time may form a complete mosaic of you and your family.
• Do not allow others to tag you in images they post. Doing so makes you easier to locate and accurately construct your network of friends, relatives and associates.
• Securely configure your social networking accounts to minimize who can see your information
• Do not use check-ins. If check-ins are enabled, disable them. Do not post your specific location.
• Be cautious when accessing online accounts from public Wi-Fi connections. Someone might have installed software capable of capturing your login credentials and other sensitive information.
• Do not use the save password, remember me or keep me logged in options from public or shared computers.
• Limit social networking to personal use.
• Do not use the same password for all of your accounts. Make sure the passwords for your financial sites are not permutations of your other passwords.
• Do not use your social networking site to login to other sites. Create another user account on the new site instead.
• Use strong, unique passwords. Consider passphrases for an additional level of safety.
• Keep anti-virus software current.
• Do not arrange meetings with people you meet online.
