There is proposed a mechanism for a connection control conducted in a communication network (such as IMS) when a back to back user agent (B2BUA) and network address translation function are involved in the establishment of the connection. When a control network element, such as a P-CSCF, receives a signaling message related to the establishment of the communication connection, via a communication leg coming from a network address translation device, it is determined whether address information contained in an SDP element of the signaling message matches with preset address information allocated to a border gateway function or BGF. When no matching is determined, normal processing like an initiation of a latching procedure at an own BGF is conducted. Otherwise, if a matching address information is determined, i.e. a mirrored SDP is deemed to be present, a latching processing at an own BGF is inhibited and the received BGF's address information are used in the connection establishment procedure. This processing is conducted at all session ends coming from the B2BUA, so that a communication connection with media flow can be established through pinholes of the BGF(s).

The present invention is relative with an information processing method for carrying out processing unit data in which one contents are handled as a data unit. When contents data are to be reproduced/output in succession, the tamper check processing for the next contents data, reproduced next to current contents data, being reproduced, is commenced at timing following the end of the processing of decryption and/or demodulation for the current contents data. This eliminates the time interval during which the processing of decryption/demodulation for the current contents data and the tamper check processing for the next contents data are carried out simultaneously in parallel to prevent the processing load caused by concurrent execution of the tamper check processing and the processing of decryption/demodulation from increasing.
