As anyone with a Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram account
knows, privacy settings can be baffling. There’s a multitude of places to
click, choices to make, and settings to turn on or off. It can be difficult to
know how secure you are when using social media.
Complicating matters, some recent events have set off alarm
bells for cybersecurity experts and individuals and businesses should be
especially cautious. Twitter has been in the headlines almost daily since tech
billionaire Elon Musk purchased the platform for $44 billion. Experts are
concerned that the termination of approximately half of the workforce and the resignations
of longtime security staff has made Twitter more vulnerable to fraud and
privacy violations.
