1. An information processing apparatus that executes authentication processing using authentication information received from a terminal, the information processing apparatus comprising:
at least one memory storing instructions; and
one or more processors configured by the instructions to perform operations comprising:
executing first authentication processing using second authentication information and preliminarily managed authentication information, the second authentication information being obtained by encrypting first authentication information received from the terminal;
executing second authentication processing different from the first authentication processing; and
enabling a Federal Information Processing Standards (FIPS) mode,
wherein, in a case where the second authentication information is authenticated in the first authentication processing, the first authentication information is managed to be usable in the second authentication processing, and
wherein, in a case where the FIPS mode is enabled, after executing the first authentication processing using the second authentication information, the one or more processors execute the second authentication processing using the authentication information received from the terminal.
