Ever worried that someone else might access your Facebook account?

Facebook helps with this - as well as Google, PayPal and plenty of other platforms, Facebook can send alerts any time there's a new login, and there are various versions of device management that will list all the devices that have accessed your account.

But how many users skip by these tools, if they even know they exist?
On Wednesday, Facebook released a new feature that takes its security tools and puts them directly in front of users' faces, so skipping them or being oblivious to the tools is all that much harder.
