Abstract

A method for operating an electronic device is provided. The method includes generating, by an authentication agent, a digital fingerprint of an application, transmitting, by an authentication agent, the generated digital fingerprint to a trusted application on a trusted execution environment (TEE), verifying, by the trusted application, the digital fingerprint, and permitting, by the trusted application, the application to access a secure storage, when the trusted application succeeds in verifying the digital fingerprint.
