Kuwait officials have urged users of smart applications and devices to activate available electronic protection measures to safeguard their digital accounts and protect their personal data from hacking attempts and cyber fraud.
The administration, in an awareness post published in both Arabic and English, highlighted the importance of leveraging the security features provided by applications and operating systems, foremost among them being two-factor authentication (2FA), fingerprint login, alongside tools designed to detect impersonation risks.
It emphasized that activating these measures contributes to enhancing the level of digital security and reducing unauthorized access attempts to accounts and personal data.
This guidance comes as part of the continuous awareness campaigns conducted by the General Department for Combating Cybercrime to promote digital security culture and raise awareness about ways to prevent cybercrimes.
