<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve security of a system utilizing web services. <P>SOLUTION: An AP 11 of a user terminal 1 transmits a request for authentication to an authentication server 2. When the authentication server 2 authenticates the AP 11, a session key used for encryption and decryption is transmitted to the user terminal 1. When a job server 3 receives a request for sign-on to a service component 32 from the user terminal 1, the job server 3 transmits a request for authentication of the service component 32 to the authentication server 2. When the authentication server 2 authenticates the service component 32, the authentication server 2 transmits the same session key to the job server 3. Then, the AP 11 and the service component 32 respectively use the session key to perform encryption communication with each other. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
