Abstract
An identification device includes processing circuitry configured to collect response information of a device by performing network scanning on a target network address group, accumulate the response information collected, compare pieces of response information having different scanning times with each other among pieces of the response information accumulated and calculate a degree of similarity between contents of responses, and identify that devices that transmit most similar pieces of response information are identical, based on the degree of similarity calculated.
