A password updating apparatus includes a current password storage section, a seed data storage section, a password generating section, a new password storage section, an access requesting section, and an update requesting section. In the current password storage section, a currently set current password is stored. In the seed data storage section, seed data serving as a seed for generating a password is stored. In the generation data storage section, generation data for generating a password is stored. The password generating section generates a new password from the seed data stored in the seed data storage section in accordance with the generation data stored in the generation data storage section. The new password storage section stores the new password generated by the password generating section. The access requesting section requests access to another computer through a communication line by using the current password stored in the current password storage section. The update requesting section requests another computer connected in accordance with the request from the access requesting section to update the current password used for the access to the new password stored in the new password storage section.
