Latest Security ChangesOn LinkedIn

INTRODUCTION

Given the news around high-profile account takeover attempts on other services, LinkedIn has worked hard behind the scenes to design 2 new tools to improve the safety, security and control of your LinkedIn account.

SEE YOUR DATA

Their first update is designed to give every member the opportunity see all the data stored on their account, including your updates, activity, IP records, searches and so on …..

Unlike other platforms out there such as Facebook, Twitter, You Tube etc., LinkedIn operates from a fundamental belief that any data you create within your account is yours and because of that you should have access to it at any given time.

GETTING THE DATA

To access your data, simply go to the “Privacy & User Settings” located in the drop down menu at the top right hand corner of your profile.

GETTING THE DATA

Click on the Account tab at the very bottom and here you will see the option: “Request an archive of your data”.

GETTING THE DATA

Once you click on that link, you will then be directed to a page asking you whether you want to request an archive of your information. Once you confirm, you will get an email notifying you that the information you’ve requested will be sent to your inbox within 72 hours.

MANAGE YOUR SESSIONS

The 2nd tool LinkedIn has built is designed to help you manage your sign sessions all in one place so you can see every location you’ve signed into LinkedIn and manage those sessions in your settings.

Not sure if you remembered to log-out of your LinkedIn account on your friend’s computer? Well with this tool you can now easily manage all those sessions in one spot.

MANAGE YOUR SESSIONS

To access this feature, go back into your settings and right underneath the Payments section you will see a link to access this section. Once you’re on this page you can see a list of the sessions that are currently open. You have the option to close them individually or all of the sessions at once.

FULL CONTROL

If you’ve outsourced your LinkedIn campaigns to an assistant or marketing department it’s important that you only have one session open at any given time.

All of these changes are part of LinkedIn’s ongoing commitment to put members first and give you full control of the content you share within the network.
