Abstract

In a network system that a plurality of information processing devices are connected via a network, an information processing device includes an information dividing part configured to generate a plurality of divided information by dividing user information, a state information acquisition part configured to acquire state information of the network system, and a destination determination part configured to determine a plurality of destinations for storing a plurality of divided information distributed thereto in response to variations of the state information. The destination determination part determines destinations based on network communication speed, physical distances between information processing devices, authentication methods applied to information processing devices, or free spaces of storage units of information processing devices. The information dividing part generates a plurality of divided information by dividing user information by predetermined data sizes or by categories.
