Abstract
According to one embodiment, the ID provider device stores pieces of policy information for each service provider ID. The ID provider device outputs a policy evaluation request including the user ID used in the log-in processing and the service provider ID in the authentication federation request when the log-in processing is successful. The ID provider device reads the policy information in accordance with the service provider ID in the policy evaluation request. The ID provider device judges whether to permit the transmission of the service data in accordance with whether environmental conditions of the user for the execution of a service conform to the read policy information.
