The invention relates to a video-encryption camera comprising a video acquisition module, a video pre-processing and encrypting module and a video storage module, wherein the video acquisition module is used for transmitting video data to the video pre-processing and encrypting module upon the completion of video acquisition; the video pre-processing and encrypting module is used for pre-processing each frame of video data, making calculations by calling a chaotic encryption system in the video storage module to generate chaotic sequences and further carrying out the XOR operations on the chaotic sequences and each frame of video data to encrypt the video data; and the video storage module is used for storing the encrypted video data on a real-time basis. Compared with the prior art, the invention encrypts the video data while acquiring and pre-processing the video data, and stores the encrypted video data in the video storage module on a real-time basis, thus avoiding the consequences that the raw video data are illegally stolen or falsified.
