Abstract
According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus includes a nonvolatile semiconductor memory and a processor. The nonvolatile semiconductor memory stores identification information. The processor controls an application which executes authentication processing for authenticating validation of the identification information stored in the nonvolatile semiconductor memory. The processor executes the application to read the identification information from the nonvolatile semiconductor memory, and to execute the authentication processing for determining whether or not the identification information is authentic. When the identification information is authentic, the processor continues at least some processes of the application, and when the identification information is inauthentic, the processor ends at least some processes of the application.
