"WhatsApp Enhances Security with Device Verification Feature"
WhatsApp has introduced a new account verification feature called Device Verification to prevent account takeover attacks by blocking the threat actor's connection and allowing targets of the malware infection to use the app without any interruption. The security measure is designed to help prevent malware running on a user's mobile device from impacting their account. The feature is part of a broader set of new enhancements that are designed to authenticate and verify users' identities, including displaying alerts when there is an attempt to migrate a WhatsApp account from one device to another.
