Abstract
Provided is a password-authenticating device that does not allow a password to be perceived from the hand movement of an operator while entering 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 authenticating unit. When the entered password candidate matches the registered password, the comparison unit receives re-entry of the password candidate a set number of times of dummy input. After re-entry of the password candidate has reached 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.
