Instagram announces new measures to better protect your account

A few days ago it was revealed that there is an active group that is dedicated to stealing accounts on Instagram, achieving that the user does not have access to it at any time. One of the problems was that the application itself did not provide many solutions in this regard. Therefore, they now introduce new security measures to protect your account.

The most important of these is two-step authentication. A function that ensures that the login is secure and that no one else can enter through us.

New security on Instagram

Also, if you have an application to identify yourself on the phone, Instagram will detect it and send the code directly to that application. If you do not have it, the application itself will direct you to the Play Store or App Store and will recommend such an application for you to install on your device. This update with improvements is expected to start rolling out now.

So between today and the next few weeks it is expected that all Instagram users will have the possibility to activate authentication in two steps in order to access the application. A major change that should improve account security.

Meanwhile, we still don't know anything about this group that hacks accounts on the social network. No one has claimed these attacks, and many users have been unable to access their account again.
