Abstract
According to one embodiment, a master key management device generates, by using a first secret key stored in a first storage unit and a third public key, a re-encryption key used to re-encrypt a second secret key which is stored in a second storage unit and which is encrypted with a first public key to the second secret key encrypted with the third public key. A key management server device receives the generated re-encryption key from the master key management device while the master key management device and the key management server device are connected to each other, and stores the received re-encryption key in a third storage unit. The master key management device and the key management server device are disconnected after the re-encryption key is stored in the third storage unit.
