A user attribute information provision system processes attribute information of users while preventing a leakage of attribute information. A provision apparatus: selects an apparatus group forming a communication path; generates information registration request in which information of a predetermined user is concealed in data recognizable only to a correspondent of the provision apparatus; and transmits the information registration request to an access destination solving apparatus via the apparatus groups. The access destination solving apparatus: stores the information of the user indicated by the information registration request and information of a correspondent provision apparatus; receives an inquiry request from an inquiry apparatus; and transfers the inquiry request by way of the correspondent provision apparatus as the user to the provision apparatus as the inquiry destination via the provision apparatuses in the communication path, thereby causing the provision apparatus to return the attribute information of the user to the inquiry apparatus.

Attribute information provision method and attribute information provision system

A data authenticity assurance method carried out by a management computer including: a first step of receiving the first data piece from the computer; a second step of selecting a plurality of second data pieces at predetermined intervals in chronological order from among the plurality of second data pieces held in the data holding part; a third step of performing an arithmetic operation for each of the hash values of the selected plurality of second data pieces; a fourth step of generating signature target data by combining the first data piece received from the computer with the hash values of the selected plurality of second data pieces; and a fifth step of generating a second data piece by assigning the digital signature to the signature target data by using the preset key, and holding the generated second data piece in chronological order sequentially in the data holding part.
