Even if WhatsApp’s chats are encrypted, its cloud backups are neither encrypted nor protected, particularly when they are backed up on Google Drive. Now the messaging platform is reportedly working on increasing the security of its cloud backups by adding a password protection feature that is going to encrypt chat backups. As per the WABetaInfo report, this new feature is in the works.
