An information processing apparatus includes an authenticating unit, a detection unit, and a controller. The authenticating unit authenticates an operator. The detection unit detects whether or not there is any set value that has been changed from an initial value among one or more set values for one or more setting items. The controller performs control so as not to change the one or more set values for the one or more setting items to one or more set values registered for the operator authenticated by the authenticating unit in the case where the detection unit detects that there is any set value that has been changed from the initial value.

An authentication control apparatus includes a first authenticating unit, a second authenticating unit, a controller, and an outputting unit. The first authenticating unit performs first authentication using authentication information stored in association with a memory area. The second authenticating unit performs second authentication using authentication information stored in association with a user. The controller performs control to perform one of authentication operations that are the first authentication and the second authentication when the user uses the memory area. The outputting unit outputs information if the one of the authentication operations performed under the control of the controller does not succeed. The information prompts the user to input authentication information to be used in an authentication operation performed when the user uses the memory area.
