Abstract
There is provided with an information processing apparatus. A memory stores a module, data, and a valid hash value that is a hash value generated for the data. A calculation unit calculates a hash value of the module stored in the memory and a hash value of the data stored in the memory. A determination unit determines whether the hash value of the data calculated by the calculation unit matches the valid hash value. A transmission unit transmits the hash value of the module calculated by the calculation unit and information representing a determination result of the determination unit to a server which verifies integrity of the module and the data stored in the memory.
Claims18
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a memory configured to store a module, data, and a valid hash value that is a hash value generated for the data;
- a calculation unit configured to calculate a hash value of the module stored in the memory and a hash value of the data stored in the memory;
- a determination unit configured to determine whether the hash value of the data calculated by the calculation unit matches the valid hash value;
- and
- a transmission unit configured to transmit the hash value of the module calculated by the calculation unit and information representing a determination result of the determination unit to a server configured to verify integrity of the module and the data stored in the memory.
An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a reception unit configured to receive a hash value of a module held by another information processing apparatus and information representing integrity of data held by the other information processing apparatus;
- a determination unit configured to determine that the module and data held by the other information processing apparatus have integrity in response to determining that the received hash value of the module matches a valid hash value that is a hash value previously generated for the module held by the other information processing apparatus, and that the received information representing integrity of the data represents that the data held by the other information processing apparatus has integrity;
- and
- a notification unit configured to notify a determination result of the determination unit.
An information processing system comprising a first information processing apparatus and a second information processing apparatus, wherein the first information processing apparatus comprises:
- a memory configured to store a module, data, and a valid data hash value that is a hash value generated for the data;
- a calculation unit configured to calculate a hash value of the module stored in the memory and a hash value of the data stored in the memory;
- a first determination unit configured to determine whether the hash value of the data calculated by the calculation unit matches the valid data hash value;
- and
- a transmission unit configured to transmit the hash value of the module calculated by the calculation unit and information representing a determination result of the first determination unit to the second information processing apparatus;
- and
- the second information processing apparatus comprises:
- a reception unit configured to receive the hash value of the module calculated by the calculation unit and the information representing the determination result of the first determination unit;
- a storage unit configured to store a valid module hash value that is a hash value previously generated for the module held by the first information processing apparatus;
- a second determination unit configured to determine that the module and data held by the first information processing apparatus have integrity in response to determining that the received hash value of the module matches the valid module hash value, and that the received information representing the determination result of the first determination unit represents that the hash value of the data calculated by the calculation unit matches the valid data hash value;
- and
- a notification unit configured to notify a determination result of the second determination unit.
An information processing method comprising:
- storing a valid hash value that is a hash value generated for data in a memory;
- calculating a hash value of the module stored in a memory and a hash value of the data stored in a memory;
- determining whether the calculated hash value of the data matches the valid hash value;
- and
- transmitting the calculated hash value of the module and information representing a determination result of the determining to a server configured to verify integrity of the module and the data stored in the memory.
An information processing method comprising:
- receiving a hash value of a module held by another information processing apparatus and information representing integrity of data held by the other information processing apparatus;
- determining that the module and data held by the other information processing apparatus have integrity in response to determining that the received hash value of the module matches a valid hash value that is a hash value previously generated for the module held by the other information processing apparatus, and that the received information representing integrity of the data represents that the data held by the other information processing apparatus has integrity;
- and
- notifying a result of the determining.
An information processing method comprising:
- storing a valid data hash value that is a hash value generated for data in a memory;
- calculating a hash value of the module stored in a memory and a hash value of the data stored in a memory;
- first determining, at a first information processing apparatus, whether the calculated hash value of the data matches the valid data hash value;
- transmitting the calculated hash value of the module and information representing a determination result of the first determining to the second information processing apparatus;
- and
- second determining, at the second information processing apparatus, that the module and data held by the first information processing apparatus have integrity in response to determining that the received hash value of the module matches a valid module hash value, which is a hash value previously generated for the module held by the first information processing apparatus, and that the received information representing the determination result of the first determining represents that the calculated hash value of the data matches the valid data hash value;
- and
- a notification unit configured to notify a determination result of the second determining.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program thereon, wherein the program causes a computer to perform an operation including:
- storing a valid hash value that is a hash value generated for data in a memory;
- calculating a hash value of the module stored in a memory and a hash value of the data stored in a memory;
- determining whether the calculated hash value of the data matches the valid hash value;
- and
- transmitting the calculated hash value of the module and information representing a determination result of the determining to a server configured to verify integrity of the module and the data stored in the memory.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing a program thereon, wherein the program causes a computer to perform an operation including:
- receiving a hash value of a module held by another information processing apparatus and information representing integrity of data held by the other information processing apparatus;
- determining that the module and data held by the other information processing apparatus have integrity in response to determining that the received hash value of the module matches a valid hash value that is a hash value previously generated for the module held by the other information processing apparatus, and that the received information representing integrity of the data represents that the data held by the other information processing apparatus has integrity;
- and
- notifying a result of the determining.
