Information processing device, control method and program

摘要

An information processing device, control method and program that suppresses security risks to a minimum. When power is activated, a control component starts by reading a first program from a first memory component and, in observance of the first memory program, it reads the identification information of an authentication device that is mounted to a mounting component, references a table T, and performs authentication processing for the authentication device, with the condition that the count value correspondingly listed for the identification information of the authentication device be larger than a prescribed value and, when authentication processing has succeeded, starts by reading the second program from a second memory component, and in the event that the authentication device continues to be mounted to the mounting component during executing the second program, decreases the table count value corresponding to the unique identification information of the authentication device.

主权项

1. An information processing device that is operable to perform authentication processing and having an authentication device mounted therewith that securely stores unique identification information of the authentication device, comprising:
a mounting component by which the authentication device is mounted; a first memory component in which a first program is stored; a second memory component in which the second program is stored; a third memory component in which is stored a table with a correspondent listing of the unique identification information of the authentication device and a count value; and a control component for starting, when power is activated, the first program from the first memory component, reading the unique identification information of the authentication device that is mounted to the mounting component, referencing the table, and performing authentication processing for the authentication device, with a condition that the count value correspondingly listed for the unique identification information of the authentication device be larger than a prescribed value and when authentication processing has succeeded, starting the second program from the second memory component, and in the event that the authentication device continues to be mounted to the mounting component during executing the second program, decreasing the count value that corresponds to the unique identification information of the authentication device.
