Title:
PERSONAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT DEVICE, DISTRIBUTED KEY STORAGE DEVICE, AND PERSONAL INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2005/104430
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
There is provided a personal information management device capable of eliminating trouble of a password input and erase of the personal information by a user, preventing read of the personal information by a person other than the user, and keeping concealment of the personal information even if a mobile device is lost. The mobile device (20) includes: a personal information storage unit (201) for holding encrypted personal information; a key distribution unit (204) for generating a first and a second distributed key according to a secret distribution method by using a decryption key of the encrypted personal information; a distributed key storage unit (205) stores the second distributed key, causes a home device (30) to store the first distributed key via a transmission/reception unit (206) and erases the decryption key. Upon decryption, a link check unit (210) checks the link with the home device (30). When the link is confirmed, a key restoration unit (207) acquires the first distributed key from the home device (30) via the transmission/reception unit (206) and generates the decrypted key from the first and the second distributed key. A decryption unit (208) decrypts the encrypted personal information by using the decryption key.
