20120254613 | INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS AND AUTHENTICATION BYPASSING METHOD - In an information processing apparatus, when a command does not include information relating to whether to perform or not to perform authentication of firmware or a first control unit, authentication or authentication bypassing is performed based on a power state and an operation table, and when the command does include the information, the authentication or the authentication bypassing is performed based on the command. | 10-04-2012 |
20120254637 | INFORMATION TERMINAL AND METHOD OF REDUCING INFORMATION LEAKAGE - An information terminal includes: a storage unit to store information; a data encryption unit to encrypt the information and decrypt the encrypted information using an encryption key; a pre-deletion unit to delete the encryption key; a signal detection unit to detect an interruption signal; a pre-deletion setting unit to instruct the pre-deletion unit to delete the encryption key in response to the detection of the interruption signal; and a deletion stop unit to stop deletion of the encryption key by the pre-deletion unit. | 10-04-2012 |
20140258665 | STORAGE DEVICE, DATA PROCESSING DEVICE, REGISTRATION METHOD, ADN RECORDING MEDIUM - A storage device includes a switching unit which switches an access destination in a storage area between a first storage area and a second storage area in response to an access request from a host device; and a nonvolatile storage medium which stores a first host device information used to identify the host device in the second storage area, and a software module executed by a CPU provided in the host device, the software module comprising causing an authority grant unit which transmits a control signal for switching the access destination to the first storage area to the switching unit of the storage device, when the acquired first and second host device information are compared to find that the first and second host device information match with each other. | 09-11-2014 |
20150019616 | APPLICATION PROVIDING SYSTEM, APPLICATION PROVIDING METHOD, AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS - An application providing system has a communication terminal, a Web server that manages resources of Web applications, and a push server that manages storage location addresses of resources. The push server has an address managing unit that manages a terminal ID, a storage location address, and providing timing in a manner associated with one another. The push server further has a timing monitoring unit that monitors the providing timing. The push server further has a push transmitting unit that transmits a storage location address of a resource of a Web application associated with providing timing to a communication terminal associated with the providing timing upon detection of the providing timing to cache the resource of the Web application corresponding to the providing timing in the communication terminal. | 01-15-2015 |
