Electronic device including display and method of encrypting information

1. A method of encrypting information on an electronic device having a camera, the method comprising:

displaying information associated with an application running on the electronic device;

receiving, via the application running on the electronic device, an input to initiate an encrypted camera application that is separate from the application running on the electronic device;

initiating the encrypted camera application;

determining an identity profile having an associated key;

receiving an input from the encrypted camera application to collect image data with the camera;

receiving image data from an image sensor of the camera;

encrypting the image data utilizing the key associated with the determined identity profile to generate encrypted image data;

adding the encrypted image data to a document associated with the application running on the electronic device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining an identity profile comprises receiving a selection of an identity profile from a plurality of identity profiles stored on the electronic device.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein:

the information associated with the application running on the electronic device includes a selectable feature associated with initiating the encryption camera application; and

receiving an input comprises receiving a selection of the selectable feature.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein determining an identity profile comprises automatically selecting an identity profile.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein automatically selecting an identity profile comprises selecting a default identity profile associated with the application running on the electronic device.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein:

the application running on the electronic device is a messaging application; and

automatically selecting an identity profile comprises:

determining that the message application includes a previous message containing encrypted information;

selecting an identity profile associated with an identifier associated with the second encrypted information.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the encrypted image data in a memory of the electronic device.

8. The method of claim 7 , wherein the encrypted image data is stored in a secured database that is separate from a database storing unencrypted image data.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the encrypted image data is stored utilizing a file type that is the same as a file type of the image data received from the image sensor.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the encrypted image data is stored utilizing a file type that is different than a file type of the image data received from the image sensor.

11. An electronic device for encrypting information, the electronic device comprising:

a display for displaying information;

a camera having an image sensor;

a processor operably coupled to the camera and the display and configured to:

display on the display information associated with an application running on the electronic device;

receive, via the application running on the electronic device, an input to initiate an encrypted camera application that is separate from the application running on the electronic device;

initiate the encrypted camera application;

determine an identity profile having an associated key;

receive an input via the encrypted camera application to collect image data from the image sensor;

receive image data from the image sensor;

encrypt the image data utilizing the key associated with the determined identity profile to generate encrypted image data;

add the encrypted image data to a document associated with the application running on the electronic device.

12. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein determining an identity profile comprises receiving a selection of an identity profile from a plurality of identity profiles stored on the electronic device.

13. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein:

the information associated with the application running on the electronic device includes a selectable feature associated with initiating the encryption camera application; and

receiving an input comprises receiving a selection of the selectable feature.

14. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein determining an identity profile comprises automatically selecting an identity profile.

15. The electronic device of claim 14 , wherein automatically selecting an identity profile comprises selecting a default identity profile associated with the application running on the electronic device.

16. The electronic device of claim 14 , wherein:

the application running on the electronic device is a messaging application; and

automatically selecting an identity profile comprises:

determining that the message application includes a previous message containing encrypted information;

selecting an identity profile associated with an identifier associated with the second encrypted information.

17. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to store the encrypted image data in a memory of the electronic device.

18. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the encrypted image data is stored in a secured database that is separate from a database storing unencrypted image data.

19. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the encrypted image data is stored utilizing a file type that is the same as a file type of the image data received from the image sensor.

20. The electronic device of claim 11 , wherein the encrypted image data is stored utilizing a file type that is different than a file type of the image data received from the image sensor.
