Video identification in encrypted network traffic dataset (VPN)

This dataset is used for the identification of video in the internet traffic. The dataset was prepared by using Wireshark. It comprises of two types of traffic data, VPN (Virtual Private Network) or encrypted traffic data and Non-VPN or unencrypted traffic. The dataset consist of the data streams (.pcap) of 43 videos. Each video is played 50 times in both VPN and Non-VPN mode. The streams were obtained by setting-up a dummy client on a PC which plays a YouTube video and Wireshark is used to capture the internet traffic. The capturing is performed for 2 minutes and record is created with the video id.The dataset was created to identify video in the encrypted network traffic without decrypting the network traffic.
