标题: WhatsApp breach: How to secure your app on Android, iOS
[br] (, 下载次数: 0) [br][br]WhatsApp, which enjoys a strong user base of over a billion users, was recently targeted by hackers, attacking mobile phones through the voice calling functionality of the app.[br][br]While WhatsApp hasn't stated who or how many users were targeted, the Facebook-owned platform has urged users to immediately update the app in order to protect their data and devices.[br][br]Here's how to go about it.[br][br]Firstly, let's talk about the WhatsApp attack[br][br]Just recently, The Financial Times reported that WhatsApp had a vulnerability, which is being used by attackers to spread spyware.[br][br]Reportedly, the malicious code was developed by Israeli cyber intelligence company NSO Group and is being transmitted from one device to another using WhatsApp calls.[br][br]Meaning, if your app isn't updated, an attacker could inject spyware and compromise your phone with a single call.[br][br]Plus, the call logs also get erased[br][br]Along with a rather unpredictable mode of transmission, the WhatsApp attack also comes with the element of secrecy.[br][br]The malicious calls that you receive on WhatsApp get erased automatically from the call log, which means there is no way to know if your device has been compromised.[br][br]This is one of the most dangerous WhatsApp attacks to show up in the recent past.[br][br]Now, here's how to secure WhatsApp on iOS[br][br]Open the App Store on your iOS device and hit the Updates tab on the bottom right.[br][br]If your WhatsApp is running an old version, you will see an Update button. Simply tap on it and install the latest version[br][br]If your app has already been updated, you will see an Open tab.[br][br]Ensure that you are running the latest WhatsApp version: 2.19.51[br][br]Here's how Android users can secure their WhatsApp[br][br]Open Google Play Store on your mobile device and tap the hamburger icon on the top-left corner.[br][br]Now tap on My Apps & Games section and tap on update if you see the option next to WhatsApp.[br][br]If your app has already been updated, you will only see the Open tab.[br][br]On Android, make sure you are running the latest version of WhatsApp: 2.19.134[br][br][br]#Infinix_India...
