Abstract
An information processing device acquires first identification information of a computer to which the device is coupled, and records correspondence information indicating a correspondence between a product key of a predetermined program and the first identification information, and second identification information with respect to the correspondence information, in the device, if a license authentication with respect to the product key based on the first identification information is successful. The device generates an individual certificate package including a unique secret key and public key for each second identification information, and records the individual certificate package in the device in correspondence with each second identification information.
