Abstract:
An information processing apparatus includes an input portion for a user to enter information, the input portion including a first input portion, and a second input portion with which information being entered is hard to be seen by a person around the user as compared with the first input portion. The information processing apparatus also includes a determination portion configured to determine whether or not entry target information to be entered by the user is sensitive. The information processing apparatus further includes a call portion configured to, prior to entry of the entry target information, call the first input portion when the determination portion determines that the entry target information is not sensitive, and call the second input portion when the determination portion determines that the entry target information is sensitive.
