Abstract: An information processing apparatus generates a public key pair in accordance with a certificate issuance request, generates a certificate signing request based on the public key pair and transmits an electronic certificate issuance request to an external apparatus. The information processing apparatus receives a response transmitted from the external apparatus as a response to the electronic certificate issuance request, obtains an electronic certificate included in the received response and causes an application to enable its use of the obtained electronic certificate.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus automatically deletes an electronic certificate according to acquisition of another electronic certificate.

Abstract: The present invention provides an information processing apparatus including: a destination setting unit configured to set a destination of an issuance request for an electronic certificate of a public key; a transmitting unit configured to transmit the issuance request to the destination at a time specified by a user; and an acquiring unit configured to acquire, from an external apparatus that is the destination, the electronic certificate that is issued on the basis of the issuance request transmitted to the destination. The information processing apparatus further includes a display control unit configured to display a setting screen on a display unit, the setting screen being a screen for receiving a setting of the destination. The display control unit prevents the setting screen from being displayed while the setting for transmitting the issuance request at the time specified by the user is in an enable state.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an image processing apparatus and an information processing method, and more particular an image processing apparatus including an acceptance unit configured to accept an operation performed on the image processing apparatus, and a controller configured to perform control such that an operation performed on the image processing apparatus is not accepted by the acceptance unit while a service associated with remote assistance is accepted based on an access from an external apparatus.

Abstract: Provided is an information processing apparatus and a control method thereof. The apparatus includes a user interface unit that accepts an operation made by a user and a wireless communication unit that communicates wirelessly with an information terminal. A user authentication is executed in response to a user authentication request from the information terminal via the wireless communication unit. In the event of the authentication succeeding, a screen displayed by the user interface unit is not switched in the case where there is a logged-in user who has been authenticated through the user interface unit in response to the user authentication request, whereas the screen displayed by the user interface unit is switched in the case where there is no such logged-in user.

Abstract: In an information processing apparatus having a hardware security module (HSM), an HSM function that makes it possible to encrypt and decrypt data using the encryption key of the HSM is able to be set to be enabled under the condition that the encryption key of the HSM is able to be backed up.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus capable of connecting to an external apparatus via a network includes a setting unit configured to enable a function of transmitting an issuance request for a digital certificate to the external apparatus at a previously designated date and time or with a previously designated cycle and acquiring a digital certificate from the external apparatus in response to the issuance request, wherein the function is enabled by the setting unit under a condition that information required for connection to the external apparatus is previously input.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus capable of connecting to an external apparatus via a network includes a first setting unit configured to enable a first function of transmitting an issuance request for a digital certificate to the external apparatus at a previously designated date and time or with a previously designated cycle and acquiring a digital certificate from the external apparatus in response to the issuance request, and a second setting unit configured to enable a second function of transmitting an issuance request for a digital certificate to the external apparatus in response to an instruction issued by a user for an issuance request for a digital certificate and acquiring a digital certificate from the external apparatus in response to the issuance request, wherein, in a case where the first function is currently enabled by the first setting unit, the second setting unit does not enable the second function.

Abstract: When this image processing apparatus accepts an initial connection request from a mobile terminal, it displays a generated PIN code on a console unit 210, and when it accepts information corresponding to the PIN code from the mobile terminal, it compares that information with the generated PIN code, and performs authentication. When the authentication is successful, it generates a public key and a private key, and transmits the generated public key to the mobile terminal.

Abstract: A communication apparatus displays connection information for an external device to perform wireless connection with the communication apparatus, determines whether a wireless connection based on the connection information is established, and hides the connection information according to establishment of the wireless connection.

Abstract: An information processing apparatus automatically deletes an electronic certificate according to acquisition of another electronic certificate.

Abstract: A printing apparatus includes a receiving unit which receives print data, an operating unit which receives a print instruction from a user, a display unit which displays a password entry screen for receiving a password entry from a user, and a printing unit which receives a print instruction from a user through the operating unit and prints print data without accepting a password through a password entry screen if a password added to the print data is matched with a fixed password and print data to be printed if a print instruction from a user is received through the operating unit, if the password added to the print data is matched with the fixed password, and if the password received through a password entry screen is matched with the password added to the print data.
