Facebook fears that candidates and campaign teams could be targeted by hackers. This is where the Facebook Protect program should take effect.
Facebook wants to help candidates and politicians to protect their accounts for the upcoming federal election.
Among other things, they should be supported in setting up security measures such as two-factor authentication for their profiles and pages on Facebook and Instagram, as the online network announced. “In addition, as part of a monitoring process, potential hacker attacks are on the lookout.”
There is an increased risk that candidates and election campaign teams could become the target of hacker attacks, emphasized Facebook. The group had started the program called Facebook Protect for the first time in 2019 in the USA in the run-up to the presidential election last November. Germany is so far the only other country in which it is being introduced.
