About

Expanded network security data from the University of Queensland offers a significant enhancement to the original NF-NIDS collections, specifically designed to aid in the standardisation of datasets for interoperability and larger-scale analyses. This release represents the NF-UNSW-NB15-V2 iteration, which increases the feature set from 8 to 43 NetFlow features, providing a robust foundation for developing and testing Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS). The data facilitates research into cyber security by offering cleaner, pre-processed information suitable for high-level classification tasks.

Columns

The dataset contains 43 NetFlow features. Based on the provided feature definitions, the columns include:
  • Feature: The identifier or index of the NetFlow feature.
  • Netflow feature name: The specific name of the attribute recorded.
  • Description: A text explanation of the feature (e.g., "Client to Server stream duration (msec)" or "IPv4 source address").
  • IPV4_SRC_ADDR: The IPv4 source address involved in the network traffic.
  • Client to Server stream duration (msec): The duration of the stream from the client to the server in milliseconds.

Distribution

  • Format: The data is available in Parquet format (cleaned) and CSV format (base).
  • Structure: Tabular data with correct data types already set in the Parquet files.
  • Data Quality: The dataset contains 0 records with missing information and 0 duplicate records, ensuring high usability (rated 10.00).
  • Size: The feature set consists of 43 unique NetFlow features.

Usage

  • Cyber Security Research: Developing and benchmarking Network Intrusion Detection Systems (NIDS).
  • Classification: Training machine learning models to classify network traffic and detect anomalies.
  • Network Analysis: Investigating traffic patterns using extended NetFlow feature sets.

Coverage

  • Scope: The data covers network traffic features extended from the NF-USNW-NB15 dataset.
  • Origin: Produced by the University of Queensland (Dr. Mohanad Sarhan, Dr. Siamak Layeghy, and Dr. Marius Portmann).
  • Updates: The expected update frequency is 'Never', indicating a static dataset for consistent benchmarking.
