Abstract
A server has a communication interface, a database, a biometric authentication means, a password specifying means, and a password transmission means. The database stores information in which, for each registrant, biometric information, identification information of an application and a password are associated with one another. The biometric authentication means is configured to, upon receiving biometric information and identification information of an application from an external processing apparatus, execute biometric authentication by using the received biometric information and biometric information of a registrant registered in the database. If biometric authentication is successful, the password specifying means refers to the database and specifies a password corresponding to the identification information of a successfully authenticated registrant. The password transmission means transmits the specified password to the external processing apparatus via the communication interface.
