If you are on Facebook, know that they are gathering all the info on you they can and now they are tracking your movements.

Recently the social engineering site FACEBOOK has introduced a new feature:

"Places I Checked Into". This feature allows "friends" to see exactly where you are logging in from.

Various OPSEC and DoD forums have indicated (via open source reporting) British forces have been targeted by terrorist/insurgent cells in the SWA AOR by using this feature.

Tactically, this FACEBOOK feature can be employed by an adversary to refine targeting and corroborate intelligence on specific sensitive locations and/or exploitable personnel.

Please ensure your personnel are aware of this risk.

You will find an attachment providing guidance on disabling this feature.

It is important to note the default for this feature is ON, unless overtly disabled by the user.
