Privacy protection method and electronic equipment

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a privacy protection method and electronic equipment. The method comprises the following steps: receiving a first input; opening a privacy setting mode in response to the first input; displaying a first interface of the target application; receiving a second input acting on a target control in the first interface; in response to the second input, setting the target control as a privacy control; when the privacy setting mode is closed and a third input acting on the privacy control is received, carrying out identity authentication; and under the condition that the identity verification is passed, responding to the third input. In embodiments of the present invention, after the privacy setting mode of the electronic equipment is started, the control in the target application interface can be set as the privacy control, and only the control related to the privacy information is protected, so that when a user uses the application, the privacy control needs to be verified, but a non-privacy space does not need to be verified, and the privacy protection of the electronic equipment is more refined.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of electronic equipment, and in particular, to a privacy protection method and electronic equipment. Background technique [0002] At present, there are usually two ways for electronic devices to protect private information: one is to encrypt applications containing private information, and users need to pass verification to enter the application; the other is to put applications containing private information into a Containers, such as encrypted folders, private spaces, etc., users need to be authenticated to enter the container to view the applications in the container. [0003] The above privacy information protection methods are all encryption protection for the entire application, that is, if the user implements privacy protection for the application including private information, all the content of the application will be encrypted. However, in the actual application process, use...
