Abstract: An electronic apparatus is obtained that suppresses a decrease in convenience to a legitimate user while reducing the possibility of unauthorized login. In the electronic apparatus, a user-interface unit displays a user-authentication screen, and detects operation for confirming a character string that is inputted in an input field. The user-authentication unit, when this operation is detected, executes user authentication based on the character string that is inputted in the input field and a pre-registered password. The user-authentication unit considers user authentication as having failed at least one time even though the character string is a correct password. The user-interface unit, (a) when the character string is not a correct password and user authentication has failed, clears the character string that is inputted in the input field. Then the user-interface unit monitors whether or not user operation of an operation unit or re-input of a character string in the input field is detected.
