Secure face image transmission method, value transfer method, apparatuses, and electronic device

An electronic device, comprising one or more processors and one or more memories, the one or more memories storing at least one program code, the at least one program code being loaded and executed by the one or more processors to implement the following operations:

• acquiring a face image of a human being using a camera component coupled to the electronic device in response to a trigger operation;
• acquiring identification information from a memory of the electronic device, the identification information uniquely corresponding to a quantity of all face images acquired by the camera component during a predefined time period;
• embedding the identification information into the face image to obtain the face image carrying the identification information, the identification information not being visible in the face image;
• and
• transmitting the face image carrying the identification information to a remote server for authenticating the human being using the identification information.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, storing at least one program code, the at least one program code being loaded and executed by a processor of an electronic device to implement the following operations:

• acquiring a face image of a human being using a camera component coupled to the electronic device in response to a trigger operation;
• acquiring identification information from a memory of the electronic device, the identification information uniquely corresponding to a quantity of all face images acquired by the camera component during a predefined time period;
• embedding the identification information into the face image to obtain the face image carrying the identification information, the identification information not being visible in the face image;
