Abstract
A method for protecting video data stored in a cloud and a system thereof. The method comprises the following steps: when video data needs to be protected, setting a corresponding locking mark and information represents a locking duration for the video data; when the locking duration of the video data that has been locked ends, removing the locking mark corresponding to the video data; when cyclic overwriting is required, overwriting video data with longest storage time and without a corresponding locking mark with new video data to be stored. A locking mark is set for video data that needs to be protected in past time and future time scopes so that the video data after locking will not be lost due to cyclic overwriting. Setting a locking password can prevent a problem that key video is deleted by mistake when a user manually deletes a video data file and can prevent key video data from being deleted maliciously by human at the same time.
