This dataset consists of network packet traces collected in 2023 on the 5G infrastructure deployed at Chalmers University of Technology.
The dataset includes 1,912 pcap files, distributed across 8 folders. Each pcap file captures 1 minute of encrypted network traffic generated by one of the following 8 popular mobile applications:
This dataset results from a 5-month-long Cloud Telescope Internet Background Radiation collection experiment conducted during the months of October 2023 until February 2024.
A total amount of 130 EC2 instances (sensors) were deployed across all the 26 commercially available AWS regions at the time, 5 sensors per region.
A Cloud Telescope sensor does not serve information. All traffic arriving to the sensor is unsolicited, and potentially malicious. Sensors were configured to allow all unsolicited traffic.
