    It was only back in March that Facebook's Chief Security Officer, Alex Stamos, was rumored to be leaving the company after reportedly clashing with other execs over its disclosure of Russia's meddling in the 2016 US presidential election. But, that clearly never happened (though he did say his role "changed"), and Facebook has been dealing with a lot more problems than just election interference since then -- like ensuring that it keeps people's personal data safe. Today, Stamos took the stage at the F8 developers conference to talk about Facebook's efforts in security and how it plans to address the many issues it faces now and others that may arise in the future.
