whatsapp hack

India halts WhatsApp's usernames rollout, citing concerns over phishing, impersonation, and online fraud. Meta must address security concerns before launch.

WhatsApp is rolling out a new security warning that alerts users before starting chats with unknown phone numbers, helping prevent scams and impersonation attacks.

WhatsApp has confirmed a sophisticated cyberattack targeting around 90 journalists and activists across 20 countries. Hackers used zero-click spyware, which can infect phones without the user clicking on anything. Meta has taken action against the attackers and is notifying the victims.
