Facebook, Samsung and Ring have unveiled new or improved privacy and security tools at the 2020 CES consumer electronics show taking place this week in Las Vegas.

Facebook announced a revamped version of Privacy Checkup, a tool launched in 2014 in an effort to make it easier for users to manage the information they share on the social media network.

The improved version of the tool, which Facebook is rolling out globally this week, focuses on four areas designed to help users strengthen account security and control what data is shared and how their information is used, Facebook said.

The How People Can Find You on Facebook option enables users to specify how others can look for them on Facebook and who is able to send them friend requests.

Amazon-owned home security and smart home company Ring announced at CES that its iOS and Android applications will soon include a new Control Center from where users can manage privacy and security features and settings.
