Instagram has announced that it will now assist users in regaining access to hacked accounts.

Instagram.com/hacked is a new site for users to report and resolve account access issues.

Users will be able to decide whether they believe their account has been hacked, have forgotten their password, have lost access to two-factor authentication, or have had their account disabled on this page.

The platform will then walk users through a number of procedures to help them reclaim access to their accounts.

If a person has multiple accounts connected with their information, they will be able to select which account requires assistance.

The firm also gives you the option of selecting two of your Instagram pals to verify your identity and regain access to your account.

Instagram is also experimenting with new ways to prevent hacking on the network. It will deactivate accounts that its automated systems identify as harmful, including those that impersonate others and violate its Community Guidelines.
