Recipient phone numbers are displayed in a hashed format because they are stored in the Netcore Whatsapp reporting application in a hashed form by design. This ensures that sensitive personally identifiable information (PII), such as mobile numbers, is never exposed on the user interface or accessible in plain text.

By storing and displaying only hashed values, the system significantly reduces the risk of accidental data exposure, unauthorized access, or data misuse. This approach minimizes data visibility within the Netcore WhatsApp reporting application while still allowing the system to securely process and deliver messages in the background.

This is a non-reversible, deliberate security and privacy measure intended to maintain strict data confidentiality, strengthen trust, and prevent any unintended disclosure of sensitive information.
