An information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes a processing circuit configured for: acquiring information of 3D printing devices which are competent to a 3D print task, where the information includes attribute features of the 3D printing devices that can be used for an attribute-based decryption; determining, based on the acquired information, an encryption attribute set or a decryption logic setting for performing an attribute-based encryption on data of the 3D print task, where the encryption attribute set or the decryption logic setting covers a specified number of the 3D printing devices and has a low encryption overhead for the data; performing the attribute-based encryption on the data using the determined encryption attribute set or decryption logic setting to obtain encrypted data; and performing control to release the encrypted data as a 3D print task.
