Unsw Nb15 Dataset

The UNSW-NB15 source files (pcap files, BRO files, Argus Files, CSV files and the reports) can be downloaded from HERE . You can also use our new datasets created the TON_IoT .

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The raw network packets of the UNSW-NB 15 dataset was created by the IXIA PerfectStorm tool in the Cyber Range Lab of UNSW Canberra for generating a hybrid of real modern normal activities and synthetic contemporary attack behaviours. The tcpdump tool was utilised to capture 100 GB of the raw traffic (e.g., Pcap files). This dataset has nine types of attacks, namely, Fuzzers, Analysis, Backdoors, DoS, Exploits, Generic, Reconnaissance, Shellcode and Worms. The Argus, Bro-IDS tools are used and twelve algorithms are developed to generate totally 49 features with the class label. These features are described in the UNSW-NB15_features.csv file.
