Information processing apparatus, information processing method, program and information processing system

摘要

An IC chip in which secure information is recorded is mounted on an information processing apparatus. The information processing apparatus is connected to a service providing server for providing a service and a settlement operator server for executing a settlement concerning the service via a network. The apparatus includes a content data acquisition part that acquires content data containing a network location of a script file capable of reading the secure information in the IC chip from the service providing server, that transmits to the network location a request for the script file, and that acquires the script file from the settlement operator server based on the request. The apparatus also includes a file reading part that reads the script file, and a secure information reading part that reads the secure information from the IC chip based on a secure information access description contained in the script file.
