An image processing apparatus and a control method therefor are provided, which realize security communication in a power saving mode while suitably maintaining the power saving mode, even if a control unit operating in the power saving mode has fewer resources than a control unit operating in a normal power mode. To accomplish this, the image processing apparatus stores a plurality of security information pieces regarding a security communication, selects a security information piece to be notified to the network interface apparatus from among the security information pieces, and notifies the network interface apparatus of the selected security information piece. The network interface apparatus executes security communication using the notified security information piece, when the image processing apparatus operates in the power saving mode.
