Abstract
An image processing apparatus that is capable of appropriately applying security policy data based on an information security policy. Security policy data containing a policy name of a security policy and a security policy setting value corresponding to the policy name is applied to the image processing apparatus. An obtaining unit obtains updating security policy data for updating the security policy data. An application version determination unit determines whether the updating security policy data obtained by the obtaining unit will be applied according to a predetermined application version setting value, when a version of the updating security policy data differs from a version of security policy data that is being applied actually. An application unit applies the updating security policy data when the application version determination unit determines that the updating security policy data will be applied.
