There is provided a battery module including: a power storage unit storing power; a first authentication unit carrying out first authentication via a first authentication route; a second authentication unit carrying out second authentication via a second authentication route; and a discharging control unit controlling discharging from the power storage unit to an external appliance, wherein the first authentication unit is operable, when the first authentication has succeeded, to share key information to be used in the second authentication with an authentication party for the second authentication, the second authentication unit carries out the second authentication using the key information shared with the authentication party, and the discharging control unit is operable, when the second authentication has succeeded, to permit discharging from the power storage unit.
摘要:
An information processing apparatus, an information processing method, and an information providing medium are provided. Encrypted information, an encrypted first key for decrypting the encrypted information, and a second key for decrypting the first key are processed to store the information in a storage medium. To be more specific, cross certification is executed with the storage medium, the first key is decrypted by the second key, the decrypted first key is encrypted, and the decrypted first key and the encrypted information are stored in the storage medium. The novel constitution prevents unauthorized replication of information by use of a low-cost, general-purpose semiconductor memory.

The present invention provides a display apparatus including a storage unit that stores information on electronic tickets; a reading unit that reads the information on electronic tickets stored in the storage unit; a determining unit that determines whether the electronic tickets are in use based on usage information of the electronic tickets included in the information on electronic tickets read by the reading unit; a display order determining unit that determines display order on a screen display of the electronic tickets based on results of the determination made by the determining unit; and a display screen generating unit that generates a display screen showing the electronic tickets according to the display order on the screen display determined by the display order determining unit.
摘要:
A content management method and content storage system are provided in which a content key encrypted with a first storage key and stored along with a content encrypted with the content key in a first content storing means is decrypted with the first storage key, the content key obtained by the above decryption is encrypted with a newly generated second storage key and stored along with the encrypted content in a second content storing means. Thus, the content management method enables to safely duplicate (back up) a content while preventing the content from being copied fraudulently.
摘要:
The present invention allows content to be transferred with source equipment retaining the content.Content is transferred to destination equipment while at the same time it is retained on the source equipment. This allows the content to be used on both source and destination equipment in contrast to the usual move operation in which content is removed from the source equipment and used only on the destination equipment. While content is under transferred control, the source equipment cannot transfer the control of the content to any third equipment. Thus, the content is held only on the two pieces of equipment: the source equipment and destination equipment. In this respect, content control transfer differs from the first-generation duplication which can produce multiple duplicates (first-generation) from the original content. Also, content control transfer differs from one-time duplication in that content control can be transferred to third equipment if the content is returned from the source equipment.

The present invention provides an information processing device, having a power generating element for converting light into power, for performing processing responsive to an environment in which a wavelength of illuminating light changes. The device includes a plurality of power generating elements whose power generating efficiencies are deflected with respect to light having different predetermined wavelengths, respectively; a plurality of voltage detecting sections for detecting voltages of power generated by the plurality of power generating elements, respectively; a determining section for determining any of the plurality of power generating elements, whose power generating efficiency is different relative to the others on the basis of the respective detected voltages of the plurality of power generating elements, to determine a surrounding environment on the basis of a determination result; and a processing section for performing processing responsive to the determined surrounding environment.
摘要:
A person authentication system capable of performing personal authentication by comparing templates that is personal identification data with sampling information input by a user is disclosed. For example, a service provider (SP) or a user device (UD) acquires the templates from a person identification certificate (IDC) generated by a personal identification certificate authority that is a third party to thereby perform personal authentication. The IDC stores data, such as a certificate identifier and a user identifier, in accordance with a format, and also stores encrypted templates in a manner that the data can be decrypted by an entity that performs authentication. This arrangement achieves efficient template retrieval and a personal authentication process, as well as effective prevention of the templates from being leaking out.
