Information processing apparatus, server apparatus, and computer program product
In an embodiment, an information processing apparatus is connected to external apparatuses. The information processing apparatus includes: a device key storage unit configured to store a device key; a shared key storage unit configured to store one or more shared keys shared by the external apparatuses; a key generating unit configured to generate a media key from the device key and media key blocks; and an updating unit configured to generate the shared keys as generated shared keys, which is updated, based upon the media key and the shared keys stored in the shared key storage unit, and to store the generated shared keys into the shared key storage unit.
1. A server apparatus connected to plural information processing apparatuses, comprising:
a key storage unit configured to store shared keys, which is shared among the plural information processing apparatus, in association with a first node included in a graph;
an MKB generating unit configured to generate media key blocks based upon a device key that is associated with a second node included in the graph, the device key being assigned to each of the plural information processing apparatuses; and
a transmission unit configured to transmit the media key blocks to the information processing apparatus,
wherein the transmission unit transmits, to the information processing apparatus, partial information used for the generation of media keys by the information processing apparatus, out of partial information of the media key blocks.
2. The server apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the graph includes a tree-structured graph,
the key storage unit stores the shared keys in association with the first node that is associated with a leaf of the tree-structured graph; and
the MKB generating unit generates the media key blocks based upon the device key associated with the second node that is the node of the tree-structured graph.
3. The server apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the transmission unit transmits, to the information processing apparatus, partial information generated based upon the device key corresponding to the information processing apparatus to which the partial information is to be transmitted, out of partial information of the media key blocks.
4. The server apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the transmission unit transmits the partial information that is requested from the information processing apparatus to the information processing apparatus.
5. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium including executable program instructions stored therein that, when executed, allow a server apparatus, which is connected to plural information processing apparatus and includes a key storage unit that stores one or more shared keys, which is shared with the information processing apparatus, in association with a first node included in a graph, to function as:
an MKB generating unit configured to generate media key blocks based upon a device key that is associated with a second node included in the graph; and
a transmission unit configured to transmit the media key blocks to the information processing apparatus,
wherein the transmission unit transmits, to the information processing apparatus, partial information used for the generation of media keys by the information processing apparatus, out of partial information of the media key blocks.
