Abstract

An electronic device is provided that includes an input device configured to receive sound, a processor, and a memory storing program instructions accessible by the processor. Responsive to execution of the program instructions, the processor is configured to identify a third party application that accesses the electronic device, and vary sound characteristics obtained by the input device based on the third party application identified to prevent a biometric algorithm from obtaining user information.
