Information processing apparatus, computer-readable recording medium storing program, and information processing method

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a processing, the processing comprising:

• receiving, by a second circuit for which RoT authentication is performed, a random value for use as a generator polynomial from a first circuit for which Route of Trust (RoT) authentication is completed;
• generating a second cyclic redundancy check (CRC) value from read-only data held by the second circuit and the random value;
• transferring the second CRC value to the first circuit;
• and
• performing, by the first circuit, the RoT authentication for the second circuit by comparing a first CRC value generated from read-only data held for the second circuit by the first circuit with the second CRC value transferred from the second circuit.
