Abstract

A secure text having an authentication code is efficiently created. A key generation part 12 generates secure texts ([x], [α], [β]) of “x”, “α” and “β” that are values satisfying xα=β. A secure text generation part 13 generates secure texts [ai] of random values “ai” for i=1, . . . , N. An authentication code generation part 14 generates authentication codes [γ(ai)] by multiplying the secure texts [ai] by the secure text [α] for i=1, . . . , N. A verification value generation part 15 generates a secure text [w] of a verification value “w” using the secure texts ([x], [α], [β]), the secure text [ai] and the authentication code [γ(ai)]. A verification value determination part 16 determines whether the verification value “w” is equal to zero or not.
