Abstract

This application discloses a secure face image transmission method performed by an electronic device. In this application, when a camera component of the electronic device acquires any face image, face image information can be read from a buffer. The face image information is used for indicating a quantity of all face images historically acquired by the camera component. Identification information is embedded in the face image to obtain the face image carrying the identification information. The identification information is used for indicating the face image information but not perceivable by a human being. The face image carrying the identification information is transmitted to a remote server for authenticating the face image using the identification information. Therefore, the security of the face image acquired by the camera component is improved, and the security of the face image transmission process is effectively ensured.
