摘要

An information processing apparatus includes a data processing unit which executes processing for decoding and reproducing encrypted content. The data processing unit executes processing for determining whether the content can be reproduced by applying an encrypted content signature file. The encrypted content signature file stores information on issue date of the encrypted content signature file and an encrypted content signature issuer certificate with a public key of an encrypted content signature issuer. In determining whether the content can be reproduced, the data processing unit compares expiration date of the encrypted content signature issuer certificate with the information on issue date of the encrypted content signature file, and does not perform processing for decoding and reproducing the encrypted content when the expiration date is before the issue date, and performs the processing for decoding and reproducing the encrypted content only when the expiration date is not before the issue date.
