What is EncryptiptionD-To-End Encryption or E2EE is a privacy feature that ensures that only you and people you communicate can read or listen to what is sent, and no one is, not even a company.
Simply put, your data is secured with the key, and only the receiver and you have a special key needed to unlock and read it.
Recently, the company also announced that the backup of whatsApp users on the Android and iOS platform are now final encrypted to the end.
Users can now secure their chat reserves with their choice password or 64-digit encryption keys that only they know.
