Behind The Scenes At Facebook's Security Center
PALO ALTO, Calif.--The nerve center for Facebook's security team is a room tucked away on the lower level of the company's main building here. The word scalps is painted in big blue stenciled letters on the back wall, which serves as a kind of scrapbook of legal and other wins for the social-networking company.
Taped to the wall are photos of spammers getting served notices of lawsuits, copies of checks defendants have used to settle suits filed by Facebook, mug shots of child predators who were kicked off the site and face criminal charges, cease and desist letters sent to fraudsters who sold fake Facebook accounts, and a letter from a former spam-happy teenager that starts "I appreciate that you spoke to my mom."
