Make Your Information Private:

Most of the people that use Facebook don't make their information private. They left it publicly, Anyone is able to know about them, like Where he/she live? What she/he does, where he/she work or study? etc.

Add Trusted Contacts:

This option can help you to choose your Facebook friends that can securely help in your FB account, whenever your account has been hacked or any problem to sign in into your account.
