Abstract: An object is to make it possible to add an electronic signature to an edited image under reliable environment. An imaging device includes a determination processing unit that executes determination processing for determining whether or not image data is an own device captured image captured by an own device on the basis of metadata corresponding to the image data input from outside of the own device and a signature processing unit that acquires re-signature data different from signature data at the time of imaging using the image data and metadata for the image data determined as an own device captured image by the determination processing unit.

Abstract: A delivery server includes a content output unit configured to output content, a delivery request reception unit which receives a delivery request transmitted from a client terminal connected to a network, a determination unit which determines whether the content is to be delivered to the client terminal in response to the delivery request when the delivery request is received using the delivery request reception unit, and a transmission unit which transmits the content output from the content output unit to the client terminal when the determination unit determines that the content is to be delivered, and transmit the content output from the content output unit to a booster server connected to the network and further transmit a transfer command including information on the booster server to the client terminal when the determination unit determines that the content is not to be transmitted.

Abstract: MTID of a terminal apparatus is preliminarily registered into a database of an ISP. In step S2, when a power source of the terminal apparatus is turned on first, (MTID=B) is transmitted from the terminal apparatus to a router. A transmission signal is received by the router and (HGWID=A, MTID=B) is transmitted from the router to the ISP. If (HGWID=A, MTID=B) has been registered in the database, the ISP transmits a permission message in step S5. In step S6, an IP address for a new terminal apparatus is allocated and the new terminal apparatus can participate in a homenetwork. If (HGWID=A, MTID=B) is not registered, a refusal message is sent to the router.
