Abstract
An information processing apparatus that communicates using an electronic certificate is provided. When identification information is configured that identifies the information processing apparatus on a network, the configured identification information is stored in a storage unit. A request for issue of an electronic certificate containing the identification information stored in the storage unit is issued to a certificate authority. Once the request for issue is issued, a determination is made as to whether or not the identification information contained in the request for issue matches the identification information stored in the storage unit prior to obtaining the electronic certificate that is issued by the certificate authority in response to the request for issue. If it is determined that a mismatch exists, the user is notified to that effect.
