In order to prevent without fail the abuse of certificate information which are exchanged on a network, an orderer inputs the certificate information to a certificate terminal when placing an order for a commodity, the certificate terminal encrypts the certificate information to send it to an order receiver and holds the certificate information and a decryption key. A deliveryman, at the time of commodity delivery, inputs the encrypted certificate information to the certificate terminal, and the orderer inputs data of terminal certification to the certificate terminal. The certificate terminal, when it certifies by the data that the orderer is the valid owner of the certificate terminal, decrypts the encrypted certificate information input by the deliveryman, by the decryption key in the certificate terminal, verifies decrypted certificate information with the certificate information in the certificate terminal, and the deliveryman hands over the commodity to the orderer when the certificate information match.

When an image representing biological information is input from a biological information input unit, such as a fingerprint sensor or the like, for obtaining an image representing biological information, such as a fingerprint or the like, statistical quantities, such as the mean value and standard deviation of the pixel values of the sampled image, are calculated. Then, using the statistical quantities, a region containing biological information is extracted, its sensitivity variations are eliminated and the effects of stains, such as a residual fingerprint is nullified, thereby generating a favorable biological image with high contrast.
