Provided is a device capable of clarifying in which image a digital watermark is embedded, and guiding an image capturing direction thereof. A user captures an image of printed matter 12 including a picture (object) 16 in which target data is embedded with a digital watermark by an image capturing unit 2. The image captured by the image capturing unit 2 is displayed on a display unit 8 by a captured image display means 4. A feature image means 6 superimposes and displays a feature figure of the picture in which the target data is embedded on the display unit 8. Consequently, the user can easily know in which picture the target data is embedded, and further capture an image in a right direction, with a right size, and at a right position by aligning the captured picture with the feature figure superimposed and displayed on the captured image. A target data extraction means 10 extracts the target data embedded as the digital watermark from the picture thus captured.
The present invention provides a feature for reducing the risk of information leakage and ensuring security when using cloud storage, while considering user convenience. In the present invention, a client terminal sends location information of the client terminal to a management server, retrieves an encryption key according to the location information, and encrypts a file or decrypts an encrypted file. Meanwhile, the management server manages a plurality of encryption keys corresponding to security levels and a policy for determining the security levels according to the location of the client terminal. Also, the management server determines the security level of the client terminal on the basis of the location information received from the client terminal and the policy, and sends an encryption key corresponding to the determined security level to the client terminal (see FIG. 5).

ENCRYPTION KEY MANAGEMENT DEVICE AND ENCRYPTION KEY MANAGEMENT METHOD
[Problem] To decrypt encrypted data even if a user forgets a password. [Solution] When a user terminal requests a reset of a password, an encryption key management device requests an approval from a manager terminal. When the manager terminal approves, the encryption key management device converts a manager password to a manager password key (211) by use of a one-way function and decrypts an encrypted user password key (222), thereby acquiring a user password key (201). Then, the encryption key management device uses the user password key (201) to decrypt an encrypted user key (200), thereby acquiring a user key (202). Thereafter, the encryption key management device converts a new user password to a new user password key (201) by use of a one-way function and encrypts the user key (202), thereby remaking an encrypted user key (200), and further uses the manager password key (211) to encrypt the new user password key (201), thereby remaking an encrypted user password key (222).
This classification device comprises a processor which executes a program and a memory which stores the program which the processor executes. The processor executes: an acquisition process which acquires a string of time series data which specifies locations and speeds in time series of a ship; a grouping process which, on the basis of the time difference and/or the speed difference of two continuous instances of the time series data among the string of time series data which is acquired by the acquisition process, groups the string of time series data into a first time series data group up to preceding time series data among the two instances of time series data, and a second time series data group from successive time series data among the two instances of time series data, and sets each to navigation data; a determination process which determines the navigation type of the navigation data on the basis of the speed of the time series data group which is included in the navigation data which is grouped by the grouping process; and an output process which outputs the result of the determination which is determined by the determination process.

[Problem] To provide a device capable of accurately correlating the content of work in a farm field and the relation thereof with the farm field. [Solution] A current location acquisition means (2) acquires the current location of a farm field management device by using a GPS system (not shown). A recording unit (2) has recorded therein farm field information (8) in correlation with farm field location information. This farm field information (8) includes information about crops planted (or scheduled to be planted) in the farm field, information about used agricultural chemicals, information about a planter, etc. A farm field information acquisition means (10) acquires, from the recording unit (2) on the basis of the current location acquired by the current location acquisition means (2), the farm field information (8) corresponding to the acquired current location. A farm field information output means (12) outputs the acquired farm field information (8). In this way, the farm field information about the farm field corresponding to the current location can be accurately acquired.
An objective of the present invention is to determine whether a user has actually seen content and award an incentive. An image acquisition means (20) of a terminal device (2) acquires an image which is captured by an image capture unit as a subject image. A query ID extraction means extracts a query ID which is embedded in the subject image as a digital watermark. A description data transmission means (42) receives the query ID and transmits description data (48). An image transmission means (22) transmits the captured subject image to an information sharing server device (6). A notification means (28) notifies a management server device (4) that the subject image (60) has been transmitted. A verification means (44) acquires the subject image (60) from the information sharing server device (6), extracts the query ID which is embedded as the digital watermark, and verifies whether the extracted query ID matches the query ID which the description data transmission means (42) has received. If the query ID is verified to match, an incentive execution means (46) executes an incentive award to a user of the terminal device (2) such as an award of points.
When data acquired from a cloud is stored in a local PC, information may leak if plain text data is stored as it is. Information can be prevented from leaking to an unauthorized user by automatically encrypting data acquired from a cloud at regular intervals.
