Abstract: A user device may strengthen the protection level of a digital content by dividing the security and normal modes and performing an operation. In order to further strengthen the protection level of the digital content, the user device may determine whether the main operating system is hacked or not, and blocks the operation in the secure mode. Otherwise, the device authorization information indicating the device security level of the user device is authorized by the content service server, and the user device blocks the operation in the secure mode according to the result.

Abstract: An electronic device according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may include at least one sensor module including a transmitter, a receiver, a secure memory for storing data obtained by the receiver, and a security control module for controlling the transmitter based on whether a target memory in which the obtained data is to be stored is the secure memory. In an example, the sensor may be a biometric sensor in which the transmitter transits an optical signal to a user's finger or iris or the like to authenticate the user. If malicious code attempting to defeat security is detected, so that the secure memory is not set up as the target memory, the security control module may control the transmitter by restricting transmission of signals.

Abstract: An electronic apparatus is provided. The electronic apparatus includes obtaining a first image including at least a part of an iris, applies an image effect to an image region corresponding to at least a part of the iris, and displays the image region through a display connected to the electronic apparatus, thereby preventing iris information from being exposed.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an apparatus for early detection of paralysis based on motion sensing. The apparatus includes: a sensing part which detects motion characteristic values of at least one left distal end and at least one right distal end of upper or lower limbs of a patient; a motion disorder determination unit which determines whether a difference between a sum of the motion characteristic values of the at least one left distal end and a sum of the motion characteristic values of the at least one right distal end, detected by the sensing part for a certain period of time, exceeds a reference value. The motion disorder determination unit determines whether a patient's motion is abnormal based on a difference in motion characteristics of distal ends, such as left and right wrists and ankles, and the like, for a certain period of time, thereby enabling detection of a stroke at an early stage.
