  • Recently, digital contents including video and sound are created in various fields, transmitted to the cloud through the Internet, and then stored and used. In order to utilize digital content, it is essential to verify data integrity, and it is necessary to ensure network bandwidth efficiency of verified data. This paper describes the design and implementation of a server that maintains, manages, and provides data for verifying the integrity of video data. The server receives and stores image data from Logger, a module that acquires image data, and performs a function of providing data necessary for verification to Verifier, a module that verifies image data. Then, a lightweight Merkle tree is constructed using the hash value. The light-weight Merkle tree can quickly detect integrity violations without comparing individual hash values of the corresponding video frame changes of the video frame indexes of the two versions. A lightweight Merkle tree is constructed by generating a hash value of digital content so as to have network bandwidth efficiency, and the result of performing proof of integrity verification is presented.
