Abstract
An information processing apparatus securely stores a program group comprising one or more programs and includes a first detector that detects an execution waiting state of a given program among the program group; a secure module that is configured such that information stored therein cannot be referred to by an external device, and when the execution waiting state is detected by the first detector, that encrypts the given program and writes the encrypted given program to a storage area that is different from that of the program group; a second detector that detects an execution request concerning the given program; a decrypter that decrypts the given program encrypted by the secure module and writes the decrypted given program to the storage area, when the execution request concerning the given program is detected by the second detector; and a program executor that executes the given program decrypted by the decrypter.
