Abstract
An apparatus performs a biometric authentication by acquiring matching data detected at a time of a biometric authentication and including a matching biometric data, a manner of holding and a posture of a terminal. A processor performs a process including acquiring matching data detected at a time of a biometric authentication and including a matching biometric data, a manner of holding and a posture of the terminal, and performing a matching process. The matching process compares the matching data and registered data including registered biometric data related to manners of holding and postures of the terminal, to extract the registered data including the manner of holding and the posture similar to those included in the matching data, and judge a successful biometric authentication when a similarity of the registered biometric data included in the extracted registered data with respect to the matching biometric data is a threshold value or greater.
