Abstract

An information processing apparatus that, when authentication is successfully performed by using first authentication information, permits access to first content. When authentication is successfully performed by using second authentication information which is different from the first authentication information, the information processing apparatus permits access to second content having a confidentiality level higher than a confidentiality level of the first content. The third authentication information is issued to a user in a period in which authentication using the second authentication information is valid. The third authentication information is different from the first authentication information and the second authentication information. When authentication is successfully performed by using both the first authentication information and the third authentication information, the information processing apparatus permits access to the second content.
