Abstract:
A low cost scramble key management apparatus which enables to manage a scramble key based on individual contract information and to ensure security in narrow band broadcasting. The scramble key management apparatus 7 includes an ECM decoding unit 75 for decoding an ECM in which a scramble key and individual contract information are encrypted. The individual contract information includes contract information indicating contract statuses of a plurality of content receivers 3, 3, . . . which is arranged based on receiver IDs for identifying each of the content receivers 3. The scramble key management apparatus 7 includes a contract information obtaining unit 76b for obtaining the contract information of the content receiver 3 associated with the receiver ID from the individual contract information and a contract status determining unit 76c for determining the contract status and outputting the scramble key to a content decoder 5 if the contract status is under contract.
