1. A method comprising:
establishing a block chain network of a plurality of imaging devices, wherein at least a first imaging device of the plurality of imaging devices of the block chain network is configured to be validated by at least a second imaging device of the plurality of imaging devices,
wherein, at a change of a set of parameters, a block message is generated by the first imaging device of the block chain network by using a secured hash function based on the set of parameters associated with the first imaging device, wherein the set of parameters comprises: a first imaging device identifier, a network fluctuation parameter indicative of at least one of a fluctuation of a recording rate and a streaming rate, and at least one inertial parameter indicative of a physical movement associated with the first imaging device; and
sending by the first imaging device the block message to the second imaging device of the plurality of imaging devices, wherein the block message facilitates validation of the first imaging device.
