Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a communication interface including circuitry, a memory, and a processor which, based on receiving ID information generated by performing a first encryption process on biometric information and password information generated by performing a second encryption process on the biometric information from an external electronic device through the communication interface, is configured to control the electronic device to: store the ID information and the password information in the memory. The processor, based on receiving first ID information and first password information from the external electronic device, is configured to control the electronic device to: acquire at least one candidate ID information from the memory based on the first ID information, compare password information corresponding to each of the acquired at least one candidate ID information with the first password information to identify one of the candidate ID information, and perform user authentication based on the identified candidate ID information and corresponding password information.
