Facebook is the main target of hackers and spammers these days. SO facebook security team always try to make it as secure as possible. In this way they have added many security features in the website. Now facebook security team has announce some safety and security changes which include two factor authentication system and improvements to it's Https supports.
In this multi-factor authentication systems, it has combined traditional passwords login system with additional identification methods, like one time use codes or digital keys.
This type of authentication system is also used in banking sectors for customer account protection and also announced in Google accounts earlier this year which send a code to user via sms.
In facebook the one time use code can be recieved via SMS or via VoIP call service. But for using this feature, you will have to turn this feature on for your account.f you turn this new feature on, facebook will ask you to enter a code anytime you try to log into Facebook from a new device.
In addition to two-factor authentication, Facebook also improved its HTTPS implementation, which due to the large amount of external content loaded into the website, was kind of impractical for users.
