摘要:
A time stamp generating system has a time distribution server for generating time data depending on time and a user PC for holding time certification objective digital data. The time distribution server generates time data corresponding to a time point and distributes the time data. The user PC calculates time stamp generating data by using the time certification objective data as an input, acquires the time data generated by the time distribution server, and processes the time data on the basis of the time stamp generating data to obtain a time stamp.

An electronic document authenticity assurance technique and an information disclosure system both of which can compatibly realize the assurance of the authenticity of disclosure documents and the deletion of information inappropriate for disclosure. An electronic document is divided into constituent elements and an electronic signature is affixed to an arbitrary subset of a set including all the constituent elements. Otherwise, an electronic signature is affixed to data obtained by binding each of the constituent elements to information specifying the relationship between a respective one of the constituent elements and the structure of the electronic document. Otherwise, the hash values of the respective constituent elements are calculated and an electronic signature is affixed to data obtained by binding the calculated hash values together. Otherwise, random numbers generated for the respective constituent elements are bound together, then the hash values of the respective random-numbered constituent elements are calculated, and then an electronic signature is affixed to data obtained by binding the calculated hash values together.

摘要:
In a signature generating method where not necessarily all of a plurality of signature generating devices work together each time to generate signatures, the present invention seeks to correctly and securely reflect data relating to previous signatures. When generating signatures, the data used for the next signature is sent beforehand to the other signature generating devices. Also, when generating signatures, at least one of the devices is used consecutively, thus allowing history data to be shared during signature generation.
摘要:
According to the invention, techniques for authenticating that a digitally signed document is genuine. Specific embodiments according to the present invention can determine whether a digital signature was generated by a digital signature generator, or if the digital signature was generated by a third party posing as the digital signature generator. Specific embodiments can provide independent verification of digital signer identity based upon prior signed messages, time/date stamps, and the like. Techniques according to the present invention can be embodied in methods, apparatus, computer software and systems.

To enable the control of rendering contents in part by using digital watermark technique:a contents serving center for embedding watermark in contents 4 embeds control information as digital watermarks within at least one of a plurality of blocks constituting electronic data by which contents are represented, thereby specifying the application of filtering to a part of the contents corresponding to the block; a contents distribution center 1 distributes the watermark-including contents to a receiving terminal 2 where checks the blocks of the received data to detect whether the control information as digital watermarks is embedded therein and applies the filtering to the block for which the embedded control information embedded has been detected in advance of reproducing the contents.
