Next, the contact telephone number Tn corresponding to the member identifier IDn is obtained from the member information section 3 (step 11).
Next, the telephone is called via the line interface 1 (step 12), and the event waits (step 13).
If there is a response (off-hook), request the output of the new personal identification number prompting message from the line interface 1 (step 1
4). The calling party responds to the message with a new personal identification number Pn2
If 'is input, the new personal identification number Pn2 corresponding to the member identifier IDn is obtained from the new personal identification number change information temporary storage unit 2 (step 15). Next, the new personal identification number Pn2 and the new personal identification number Pn2 'are compared (step 16). If both the personal identification numbers Pn2 and Pn2 'match, this personal identification number changing access is regarded as valid, the new personal identification number Pn2 is registered in the member information section 3, the member is notified of that fact, and the line is disconnected ( Step 17).
If the calling party does not respond for a certain period of time or the new personal identification number cannot be confirmed, the line corresponding unit 1 is requested to disconnect the line (step 18), the personal identification number changing access is invalidated, and the personal identification number is changed. Do not change. Finally, the password change information temporary storage unit 2 is requested to release the temporary storage information area of the storage device 5 (step 19).

いった効果がある。As described above, according to the present invention, the new personal identification number entered by the member is temporarily stored, and the new personal identification number entered by the member after calling the member is temporarily stored. By comparing the new PIN with the new PIN and changing the PIN to the new PIN when it matches, users of services that need to register the PIN will not be given the PIN change notification as before. You don't have to go through the troublesome procedure of obtaining a form, entering a new PIN on it, and then mailing it, so feel free to use a PIN that may be known to others when actually using the service. You can change it, and as a result you can prevent the risk of unauthorized use of your PIN, and your contact phone number will be handled manually only when you register for membership and when members use normal services. Not known to others because unnecessary Nikuku, the safety of this device is also high,
Furthermore, there is an effect that the administrator of the personal identification number does not need to have a special person in charge for the change process and is released from this task.
