Title: WhatsApp will soon add end-to-end encryption for chat backups
description: WhatsApp is an application that is loud all the time. All thanks to the constantly introduced novelties.
WhatsApp is popular with consumers around the world thanks to its end-to-end encryption that secures users' chats. However, this layer of security is currently available for chats on respected smartphones. The missing end-to-end encryption from cloud backups that store WhatsApp chats was one of the red flags that cybersecurity experts have recently been paying attention to.
In our opinion, safety is extremely important.
We found out that both Android and iOS users will be able to take advantage of this enhanced layer of security that WhatsApp is preparing for the future.
Currently, only messages and data shared between devices receive end-to-end encryption support. It is also the data stored on the appropriate devices that has this additional layer of security. We have learned that in the future, all cloud servers where WhatsApp chats will be stored will receive end-to-end encryption support. We remind you that users will receive an additional layer of security both on Google Drive and on iCloud servers.
WhatsApp is also developing a completely new platform to secure chats and other data shared on WhatsApp for both Android and iOS users.
The modern and missing feature will protect the platform from additional cyber threats, and also close one of the main vulnerabilities that could have given a hacker access to the user's account. We are constantly counting on WhatsApp to surprise us with new products in some time. As soon as we learn about new products, we will certainly inform you about it.
