Abstract
Provided is a password-authenticating device in which a password is not perceived from the hand movements of an operator during entry of a password. The password-authenticating device according to the present disclosure executes a login process by comparing an entered password candidate with a registered password. The password-authenticating device includes a comparison unit, and an authenticating unit. The comparison unit receives entry of the password candidate together with a number of times of dummy input, and when the entered password candidate matches the registered password, receives re-entry of the password candidate. After re-entry of the password candidate reaches the number of times of dummy input, the authenticating unit executes the login process regardless of whether or not the re-entered password candidate matches the registered password.
