Abstract
An electronic apparatus includes a display, a touch panel, a controller, an input module, a generator and a display controller. The controller deactivates security of the electronic apparatus when a password is inputted. The input module makes a user input the password by one character. The generator generates a key group including a first character in the password and a character other than the first character. The display controller displays a software key for displaying a character group in the key group as an input target on the display on a password input screen for inputting the password.
Claims8
An electronic apparatus comprising:
- a display;
- a touch panel;
- a controller configured to deactivate security of the electronic apparatus based on a password;
- an input controller configured to prompt input of a character;
- a generator configured to generate a key group including a first character in the password and a second character other than the first character;
- and
- a display controller configured to display a software key for displaying a character group in the key group as an input target.
A non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program that causes an electronic apparatus to execute a processing, the electronic apparatus comprising a display, a touch panel, a controller, an input controller, a generator and a display controller, the processing comprising:
- causing the controller to deactivate security based on a password;
- causing the input controller to prompt input of a character;
- causing the generator to generate a key group including a first character in the password and a second character other than the first character;
- and
- causing the display controller to display a software key for displaying a character group in the key group as an input target.
A security releasing method comprising:
- generating by an electronic apparatus a key group including a first character in a password and a second character other than the first character;
- displaying a software key for displaying a character group in the key group as an input target on a password input screen for inputting the password;
- prompting input of a character on the password input screen;
- and
