Abstract

A computer assisted name-based aggregation system that acquires anonymized data from a plurality of service providing systems without obtaining the personal information, and identifies the name of the acquired anonymized data. The computer assisted name-based aggregation system transmits a transmission request that requests transmission of data, and a value that changes for each transmission request to the plurality of service providing systems; receives a set containing hash values created based on an identification number for controlling data and the aforementioned value, and the anonymized data specified by the identification number, from the plurality of service providing systems; and identifies the name of anonymized data specified by the hash value from the anonymized data received from each of the plurality of service providing systems.
