ICS-ADD -A Smart Industry Testbed Dataset for Cyber-Physical Security Monitoring Testing

The increasing integration of cyber-physical systems in industrial environments has under scored the critical need for robust security measures to counteract evolving cyber threats. In response to this need, this work introduces an open-source dataset designed to enhance the development and evaluation of cybersecurity solutions for smart industries. The dataset comprises a traffic capture of an industrial control system (ICS) subjected to a variety of simulated cyber-attacks, including but not limited to denial of service (DoS), man-in-the-middle (MITM), and malware infiltration. In addition to raw network traffic, the dataset presents the output of two widely utilized open-source security monitoring tools, OSSIM (Open Source Security Information Management) and Suricata, which offer insights into the detection and analysis capabilities of existing security frameworks against these simulated threats. By providing a detailed account of attack methodologies, network traffic characteristics, and tool responses, this dataset serves as a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners aiming to develop, test, and benchmark new cyber-physical security monitoring and detection technologies.
