1. An authentication apparatus collecting a distributed electronic document with an electronic signature for authenticating said electronic document comprising:
- an electronic signature generating portion using personal information obtained by digitizing information associated with a physical feature of an individual to perform a first operation on first information for generating an encrypted electronic signature and adding said encrypted electronic signature to said electronic document; and
an individual authenticating portion extracting said encrypted electronic signature added to said electronic document and performing a second operation to decrypt said encrypted electronic signature for authentication of personal identification.

Abstract
A logic operation portion performs an operation on an original sign using personal information obtained by digitizing information associated with a physical feature of an individual for generating an encrypted electronic signature. An electronic signature adding portion adds the electronic signature to an electronic document for distribution. Thus, it becomes difficult to identify an individual and criminal use due to forgery of the electronic signature is prevented. As a result, security of privacy and property of the individual in the market is assured.
