An electronic device may: when a first piece of content is acquired, acquire a first score for the relationship between the first piece of content and the privacy of a user of the electronic device, on the basis of information about a person included in the first piece of content and information about an event included in the first piece of content; acquire a second score for the security of each of at least one application which can access the first piece of content; and, when a request for accessing the first piece of content via a first application from among the at least one application is received, determine whether or not to block access to the first piece of content via the first application, on the basis of the first score corresponding to the first piece of content and the second score corresponding to the first application.

Electronic device and control method thereof

An electronic device includes a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions to, based on receiving one or more packets from an external device, identify whether the one or more packets are encrypted, acquire first information indicating whether each of the one or more packets is encrypted and second information indicating a received signal strength indicator (RSSI) of each of the one or more packets, and acquire authenticated RSSI information of the external device by identifying RSSI information of an encrypted first packet based on the first information and the second information.

Electronic device and electronic device control method

An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus according to the disclosure includes: a display, a communication interface comprising communication circuitry, a memory, and a processor. The processor may be configured to: based on acquiring a user command for executing an application stored in the memory, execute the application, based on acquiring a request for access for information stored in the memory through the communication interface while executing the application, acquire access control information of another electronic apparatus related to the electronic apparatus for the application and a relevance between the user and the user of the another electronic apparatus, acquire guide information for guiding a response to the request for access based on the access control information and the relevance, and control the display to display a message including the guide information.

Electronic apparatus and method for controlling thereof

An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device comprises: a camera; a storage unit; and a processor for capturing an image including authentication information of an external electronic device through the camera, acquiring first information related with a public key included in the image and storing the first information in the storage unit, and comparing second information with the first information so as to authenticate the external electronic device when the second information and identification information related with the public key are received from the external electronic device on the basis of a type of first information.

Electronic device, external electronic device and system comprising same

Provided are an electronic device and a method for controlling same. In a method for controlling an electronic device, the strength of a signal transmitted by an external device and/or whether or not the electronic device is being used is confirmed during the execution of communication with the external device, information relating to the movement state of the external device is requested if the strength of the signal transmitted by the external device and/or whether or not the electronic device is being used satisfies a predetermined condition, authentication information for authenticating the external device is transmitted to the external device if the external device is determined to be moving on the basis of the information relating to the movement state of the external device, an ultrasonic signal is output on the basis of the authentication information, and an authentication result in response to the ultrasonic signal may be received from the external device.
