Decryption device

Abstract

A decryption device includes: an internal-key storage section for storing an internal-key; a content-key storage section for storing a content-key; a determination section for determining whether or not a value of the content-key storage section in its initial state and a current value of the content-key storage section are different; and an operation section, the operation section including a first decrypting section which, when an encrypted content-key is input to the operation section, decrypts the encrypted content-key using the internal-key so as to obtain a content-key and stores the content-key in the content-key storage section, and a second decrypting section which, when an encrypted content is input to the operation section and the determination section determines that the value of the content-key storage section in its initial state and the current value of the content-key storage section are different, decrypts the encrypted content using the current value of the content-key storage section as a content-key so as to obtain a first output data and outputs the first output data to outside of the decryption device.
