A valid medium issuing system reads a key Ka corresponding to an ID number
from a key management book at a request from the script storage system to
issue a script medium (MO), decrypts a valid medium certificate in a
storage medium delivered from the factory using a key Ka, and generates a
script medium (MO). The script medium (MO) is transmitted to the script
storage system, and the script storage system records a script document
on the script medium (MO). In this process, a decrypting process of a
valid medium certificate is performed using the same key Ka, and after
confirming the script of the storage medium, the script is recorded. With
this configuration, a script document is recorded only for the script.
