Abstract
To efficiently perform encryption/decryption and message authentication processing for a plurality of messages in parallel, an information processing apparatus includes a plurality of encryption/decryption and message authentication units which can perform encryption/decryption processing and message authentication processing by switching between them in a predetermined block unit, and are configured to be operable in parallel, and a data transfer control unit which distributes processing target data associated with an encryption/decryption and message authentication processing request to the plurality of encryption/decryption and message authentication units. The data transfer control unit distributes the processing target data so that each of the plurality of encryption/decryption and message authentication units alternately performs the encryption/decryption processing and the message authentication processing in the predetermined block unit for each processing request included in a plurality of processing requests.
