1. A scene monitoring system comprising:
- a scene authentication information device comprising a light source configured to produce scene authentication information transmitted by visual or non-visual light within the electromagnetic spectrum from infrared to ultraviolet, wherein the scene authentication information identifies a particular location and a particular time or time period, the scene authentication information device being positioned within a scene being monitored by an imaging device, the imaging device coupled to a security gateway, wherein the scene authentication information device is configured to transmit authentication information to be received by the imaging device concurrently with image or video detection by the imaging device, and wherein the security gateway is configured to receive the authentication information from the imaging device in the form of an image or video accompanied by scene authentication information, and determine whether the imaging device or data transmitted from the imaging device has been corrupted or compromised.

9. A method of processing an image or video of a monitored location comprising:
receiving an image or video comprising non-visual authentication information generated by an imaging device, wherein the scene authentication information identifies a articular location and a s articular time or time period, wherein the authentication information is transmitted by an authentication information device comprising a light source configured to produce scene authentication information transmitted by visual or non-visual light within the electromagnetic spectrum from infrared to ultraviolet and captured by the imaging device concurrently with an image or video of the location;
processing the image to generate an encrypted authenticated image or video; and
transmitting the processed image to a monitoring unit, the imaging device coupled to a security gateway, and wherein the security gateway is configured to receive the authentication information from the imaging device in the form of an image or video accompanied by scene authentication information, and determine whether the imaging device or data transmitted from the imaging device has been corrupted or compromised.- View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. An authentication device, comprising:
-
a light source configured to produce light transmitting scene authentication information transmitted by visual or non-visual light within the electromagnetic spectrum from infrared to ultraviolet, wherein the scene authentication information identifies a particular location and a particular time or time period; at least one hardware processor; and a memory coupled to the at least one processor, the memory configured to store program instructions executable by the at least one processor to cause the system to; generate authentication information, and transmit the authentication information so that it is detectable by an imaging device, the scene authentication information transmitter being positioned within a scene being monitored by an imaging device, the imaging device coupled to a security gateway, and wherein the security gateway is configured to receive the authentication information from the imaging device in the form of an image or video accompanied by scene authentication information, and determine whether the imaging device or data transmitted from the imaging device has been corrupted or compromised.
