WhatsApp is a popular messaging platform in Brunei and the rest of the world. We are far in distance, but with WhatsApp, we can now communicate with each other easily.

There are several steps to make sure your WhatsApp account is safe and away from being hacked.

First, enable two-step verification.

Second, turn off auto-media download. Make sure to only download trusted files.

Third, always check your linked devices. If you see an unfamiliar device, disconnect it immediately.

Fourth, always lock your WhatsApp application.

Fifth, do not download any .apk files you receive on WhatsApp.
