Abstract: When decrypting an image of a part of a document that is encrypted and therefore illegible, a user uses a decryption apparatus 15 to read the document as an electronic image and also to receive a user authentication by accessing a key management server 11. Then, the user transmits a management number obtained from the image to the key management server 11 from the decryption apparatus 15. The key management server 11 extracts position information of the portion of the document that is encrypted and a decryption key for decrypting this portion from a key management database 13 and transmits the decryption key to the decryption apparatus 15. The decryption apparatus 15 processes the electronic image by using the position information and decryption key received from the key management server 11 so as to decrypt the encrypted part so that it is legible.
