Abstract
A device for removing security on content using biometric information includes a memory configured to store content on which security has been set based on first biometric information of a user; and a controller configured to obtain second biometric information of the user, which is of a different type than the first biometric information, and remove the security on the content based on the second biometric information, in response to a user input for executing the content.
Claims27
A device for removing security on content using biometric information, the device comprising:
- a memory configured to store content;
- and
- a controller configured to:
- set security on the content based on a first biometric information of a user,
- receive a user input selecting a second biometric information of the user, the second biometric information being different from the first biometric information,
- obtain the second biometric information, in response to a user input for executing the content, and
- remove the security on the content based on the second biometric information.
A device for logging in to a server using biometric information, the device comprising:
- a communicator configured to communicate with the server located outside the device;
- and
- a controller configured to log in to the server based on first biometric information of a user, to receive a user input selecting second biometric information of the user, the second biometric information being different from the first biometric information, and after the device is logged off from the server, to obtain the second biometric information of the user, to transmit a password related to the second biometric information to the server through the communicator, and to re-log in to the server when the user is authenticated using the password.
A method of removing security on content using biometric information, the method comprising:
- storing content on which security is set based on first biometric information of a user;
- receiving a user input selecting second biometric information of the user, the second biometric information being different from the first biometric information;
- obtaining the second biometric information in response to a request to execute the content;
- and
- removing the security on the content based on the second biometric information.
A method of logging in to a server using biometric information, the method comprising:
- logging in to the server based on first biometric information of a user;
- receiving a user input selecting second biometric information of the user, the second biometric information being different from the first biometric information;
- obtaining the second biometric information of the user when logged off from the server;
- transmitting a password related to the second biometric information to the server;
- and
- re-logging in to the server when the user is authenticated using the password transmitted to the server.
A method of managing security of a content stored on a first device, the method comprising:
- obtaining a first biometric information;
- receiving a user input selecting a second biometric information;
- receiving from a second device the second biometric information;
- and
- setting security on the content based on the obtained first biometric information and the received second biometric information.
A method of managing security of a content stored on a first device, the method comprising:
- obtaining a first biometric information;
- setting security on the content based on the first biometric information;
- receiving a user input selecting a second biometric information;
- receiving from a second device the second biometric information;
- and
- removing the security from the content based on the second biometric information
