VPN
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 presents real-world VPN encrypted traffic flows captured from five applications that belong to four service categories, which reflect typical usage patterns encountered by everyday users.
Our methodology utilized a set of automatic scripts to simulate real-world user interactions for these applications, to achieve a low level of noise and irrelevant network traffic.
The dataset consists of flow data collected from four service categories:

Anonymous network traffic is more pervasive than ever due to the accessibility of services such as virtual private networks (VPN) and The Onion Router (Tor). To address the need to identify and classify this traffic, machine and deep learning solutions have become the standard. However, high-performing classifiers often scale poorly when applied to real-world traffic classification due to the heavily skewed nature of network traffic data.
