Abstract

Upon receiving a usage request that includes a file identifier and a version identifier from a user terminal 20, a control server 10 transmits a file request that is based on the usage request to a file management system, and transmits a permission information request that is based on the usage request to a distributed ledger system. Upon receiving the file request, the file management system acquires the file that corresponds to the combination of the file identifier and the version identifier and transmits the file to the control server 10. Upon receiving the permission information request, the distributed ledger system acquires permission information that corresponds to the combination of the file identifier and the version identifier from a distributed ledger, and transmits the permission information to the control server 10. The control server 10 transmits the file to the user terminal 20 if the user of the user terminal has viewing permission based on the permission information.
