Backing up your chats? Make sure your backups are also encrypted. Otherwise, they could be accessed if your cloud account is compromised.
How to:
– Open WhatsApp and tap ‘Settings’.
– Go to ‘Chats > Chat Backup > End-to-End Encrypted Backup’.
– Tap ‘Turn On’ and create a password or use a 64-digit encryption key.
– Save your password safely. If you lose it, you won’t be able to restore your backup.
Pro-Tip: Encrypting backups ensures your messages stay private even if someone breaches your cloud storage.
They always provide excellent advice and support so we have total confidence in their ability no matter the challenge we set them.
