To perform group cryptographic communication among a plurality of user's computers without communicating with a server.
When a computer 1-C transmits a group entry request to a computer 1-A (S202-3) during the performance of group cryptographic communication between the computers 1-A, 1-B, exchange keys are exchanged among the computers 1-A to 1-C (S210-1, S210-3). Respective computers 1-A, 1-B, 1-C generate group secret keys on the basis of the received exchange keys (S211-1 to S211-3). Thereafter group cryptographic communication is performed by using the group secret keys. When the Diffie-Hellman type key exchange system is adopted, the exchange keys α, Z of the computers 1-A, 1-C are g
