Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the above-mentioned prior art, the authentication function (security function) based on the biometric information of the person is effective only after the system installed in the information processing device is activated, so the period from the activation of the information processing device to the effective authentication function is , there is a problem that the information stored in the

Example Embodiment

[0029] Example

[0030] First, the outline and features of the information processing device of this embodiment will be described. The information processing device of this embodiment is equipped with a security chip (for example, an LSI with a biometric authentication function disclosed in International Publication No. 2005 / 106620 pamphlet) that independently executes predetermined processing. When the information processing device is powered on, the security chip is The main LSI such as the CPU of the information processing device or the entire system starts independently before starting.

[0031] In addition, the security chip acquires the user's biological information (biological information such as fingerprints, iris, face, veins, etc.) from the externally connected sensor for biological authentication, and determines the Whether to allow the activation of the information processing device, when it is determined that the activation of the information processing device is...

Abstract

An information processor (100) has a security chip (150) for independently executing a predetermined processing. The security chip (150)is started alone prior to the main LSI such as a CPU (130) or the whole system of the information processor (100) when the information processor (100) is started. The security chip (150) then acquires the biometric information on the user from a bio-sensor (120), judges whether or not to permit the start of the information processor on the basis of the acquired biometric information and the biometric information on the user which is prestored, and starts the main LSI such as the CPU (130) or the whole system thereof when judging to permit the start of the information processor (100).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an information processing device and the like having a chip mounted in the information processing device to independently execute predetermined processing, and more particularly to an information processing device and an activation method capable of solving the problem of information leakage. Background technique [0002] In recent years, in order to solve problems such as leakage of information (confidential information, information about user privacy, etc.) stored in information processing devices, attempts have been made to install biometric authentication functions in information processing The information stored in the information processing device is protected from the user's biological information such as the face and veins. In such a conventional biometric authentication function, after the information processing device is powered on, systems such as the OS (Operating System) installed in the information process...
