WhatsApp USERS - PAY ATTENTION!

-


WhatsApp is an app which is getting popular day by day because of its awesome features. There are more than 20 million people around the world who are using WhatsApp. However, everything has positive and negative aspects. There are three security threats present for WhatsApp users yet almost all of them are unaware of it. Today, we will let you know about these security threats.

1.    Crash Messages

Some time ago, a person found that any person can crash other person’s instance of WhatsApp by just sending a 7MB message. When the other person will receive that message on WhatsApp than the WhatsApp will start crashing every single time the other person tries to open the thread. However, recently it was found that now by just sending a 2KB message containing a set of special characters, WhatsApp will start crashing each and every time the other person tries to open the thread. The person will eventually have to delete the WhatsApp to solve this problem. Backing up a conversation or restoring a conversation would not be helpful to resolve the issue. This problem will not occur for WhatsApp individuals but also for WhatsApp groups. Each person in the group will have to face this issue. Many people in the world are using WhatsApp for their business without knowing that it could be dangerous for their business. Still, there is no such work has been done to overcome this problem. Well, we hope that WhatsApp developers resolve this issue as soon as possible.

2.    Web Malware

At the present time, you can use WhatsApp by way of a web interface. Some people all over the world are now releasing some bad download links. These bad links look similar to the real WhatsApp clients. However, they will send you a load of malware. The labs of Kaspersky had discovered these download links in various languages. These links used to gather data from the downloader’s and then they release malware. Providentially, there is a solution to this problem is quite simple. You will have to make sure that you are using official URL. If you want to use the website app then go to the www.web.whatsapp.com. There is no such need to download any browser extension or app.

3.    Spying on Other WhatsApp users

As we all know that WhatsApp has launched end to end encryption. However, the threat is still present. There are some ways that hackers can easily listen or see the conversations of anyone they want to by using the mSpy app. mSpy app is actually a spy software which will send reports on calling, browsing, text messages etc. The hackers have to get the app onto the target person’s phone which takes a small period of time. You can avoid this problem by just getting aware of the apps you have installed. MAC spoofing is another dangerous method to listen or see the messages of a WhatsApp user. You can come across this issue by just being conscious about your phone. There is no need to give your phone to someone else unless you know that the person will not cheat on you. To get a MAC address is not a tough task so try not to give your phone to anybody you do not know or trust.
