Top new security features for WhatsApp

WhatsApp has launched a new set of account protection tools to enhance user security against account hijacking and fraud attempts. One of the key updates is the upgrade of the two-step verification feature to include the use of more complex passwords, consisting of letters, numbers, and special symbols, replacing the previous PIN code. The company also introduced support for passkeys, which rely on built-in device verification methods such as fingerprint or facial recognition, making account recovery easier and providing an additional layer of protection. Additionally, a new filter has been added for information received during calls from unknown numbers, allowing users to see more details about the caller in order to reduce the risk of fraud. These updates are part of WhatsApp’s ongoing efforts to integrate multiple security tools while maintaining end-to-end encryption of chats, aiming to reduce the risks of hacking and online scams.
