When logged in, go to your Settings and select the Security and Login option.

If you’re one of the more than 1 billion active WhatsApp users, you have the option to enable the double verification feature.

Similarly, if you never requested to confirm your phone number but received a link from WhatsApp, you’re advised to ignore it as someone else may be trying to do without your knowledge or permission.
