WhatsApp has introduced a global Security Center aimed at assisting users in safeguarding themselves against spammers and undesired contacts. This comprehensive resource will provide users with information regarding security measures, built-in features, and the underlying technology that ensures a secure and private platform experience.
The Security Center is accessible in English as well as ten other Indian languages, namely Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, Kannada, Bengali, Marathi, Urdu, and Gujarati. Its primary objective is to raise awareness about the various tools and procedures that empower users to maintain control over their personal safety.
The Security Center emphasizes the importance of end-to-end encryption as a crucial element in safeguarding personal messages, serving as a strong deterrent against scammers and fraudsters. Additionally, WhatsApp continuously seeks innovative methods to enhance user privacy and safety.
Highlighted measures include the implementation of two-step verification to enhance account security, providing guidance on avoiding fake versions of WhatsApp, and reminding users to review group control settings.
