Security experts have warned users of Facebook's new Graph Search to raise their privacy settings in order to avoid embarrassment or become victims of cybercriminals, PC World has reported. "Some of the searches that you can run are pretty shocking, what better way to demonstrate the personal risks of using Facebook?" said Rick Holland, a senior analyst for security and risk management at Forrester Research, adding that companies should include Graph Search in security awareness campaigns. "Tie Facebook and protecting your family's privacy into a broader training session that also covers spear phishing/social engineering. Win for the employee and win for the company," he said.
