BSVMS: Novel Autonomous Trustworthy Scheme for Video Monitoring

Abstract

With the continuous development and application of monitoring technology, which involves increasingly more sensitive information, the global demand for video monitoring systems has surged. As a result, video monitoring technology has received widespread attention both at home and abroad. Traditional video monitoring systems experience security threats, with differing levels of severity, in terms of attack, storage, transmission, etc., which results in different degrees of damage to users’ rights. Therefore, we propose a blockchain-SM-based video monitoring system called BSVMS. For the front-end device invasion risk, internal attack risk, and security storage problem of the monitoring system, we use commercial cryptography algorithms to complete the encryption processing of images through a visual change network in the imaging process, thereby ensuring the security of the video data from the source. To address the problem that the video monitoring application software and data are vulnerable to damage, we use blockchain technologies that are tamper-proof and traceable to build a trustworthy video monitoring system. In the system, no member can query the original monitoring data. To address the security issues in network transmission, we use a commercial cryptography algorithm for multilayer encryption to ensure the security of data during transmission, guarantee the confidentiality of the system, and realize domestic autonomous control. We then conduct tests and security analysis of the encryption and decryption efficiency of the SM4 algorithm used in the system, the blockchain performance, and the overall performance. The experimental results show that in this system environment, the SM4 algorithm encryption and decryption efficiency is better than other algorithms and that the blockchain used meets industry standards.
