ABSTRACT:
Recording peripheral image information by an electronic apparatus only when illegal use of the apparatus is determined to minimize resources and simplifying recording. The electronic apparatus includes a first memory storing a parameter representing at least one condition for the illegal use of the apparatus and a control unit for storing in a second memory image information by a photographing device that photographed a user of the apparatus after the conditions are satisfied. The control unit controls the output of the image information stored in the second memory through an output direction and directs a BIOS setup program to read out the parameter in the first memory and record the image information into the second memory and directs an operating system or an application program running on the apparatus to set and alter the parameter in the first memory via an interface in the BIOS program.
