I have a question about facebook security? - Maria - 04-24-2014 12:56 AM

when someone tries to sign into some one else's facebook account. sometimes facebook asks for a their birth date to make sure that they are not hackers.and if they answer incorrectly and fail to log in,the next time the real owner logs into her account will be informed of their effort.
my question is what if they know your birth date and answer correctly and get to your account.will the owner be informed as well? or facebook will get confident that they are no hackers and just doesn't inform the real owner after that?

If I recall correctly, you are always notified somehow that someone has logged in to your account from a new computer. An E-mail and/or a notification. But you can always check your account's Security Settings, what displays every device that are allowed to log in to your account without verification in need.
