Abstract
Disclosed is a technique which aims to suitably limit access to stored information from an external apparatus which is not permitted to access the information. An information processing apparatus such as an MFP authenticates a portable information terminal, and stores information input within a predetermined period after the authentication in association with the portable information terminal. When accepting a request for processing the stored information from a portable information apparatus after the predetermined period, the information processing apparatus identifies whether the portable information terminal having transmitted the request is the device associated with the information of interest. If the portable information terminal is identified as the device associated with the stored information, the information processing apparatus executes the processing of the information in accordance with the request.
