Abstract

Captured Thread packets from OpenThread-enabled development boards.

This Carnegie Mellon University dataset contains Thread packets that were captured using a software-defined radio (USRP N210). More specifically, the contributors used GNU Radio with the gr-ieee802-15-4 and gr-foo modules to receive IEEE 802.15.4 packets and store them in PCAP format. Furthermore, the contributors used Adafruit Feather nRF52840 Express devices that were flashed with OpenThread binaries for Nordic Semiconductor nRF528xx SoCs in order to form Thread networks. In total, 35 experiments were conducted in order to study the security of Thread networks, which can be organized into three different types of experiments: (a) packet analysis experiments, (b) energy depletion attack experiments, and (c) online password guessing attack experiments. This research was supported in part by the Secure and Private IoT initiative (IoT@CyLab) at the Carnegie Mellon CyLab Security and Privacy Institute. More details about the procedure that was followed and the master keys that were generated for each experiment are included in the dataset.

These datasets are part of Community Resource for Archiving Wireless Data (CRAWDAD). CRAWDAD began in 2004 at Dartmouth College as a place to share wireless network data with the research community. Its purpose was to enable access to data from real networks and real mobile users at a time when collecting such data was challenging and expensive. The archive has continued to grow since its inception, and starting in summer 2022 is being housed on IEEE DataPort.
