Catalog Notes

Introduction to MU-IoT Dataset

The MU-IoT dataset is a state-of-the-art cybersecurity resource published in IEEE 2024, specifically engineered to address gaps in existing IoT intrusion detection datasets. It provides realistic network traffic from diverse IoT devices under both normal operations and sophisticated attack scenarios.

Device Ecosystem

Traffic captured from diverse IoT device categories: smart home (IP cameras, smart locks, voice assistants, smart plugs), healthcare IoT (blood pressure monitors, glucose meters, pulse oximeters), wearables (fitness bands, smartwatches), environmental sensors (temperature/humidity, air quality monitors), industrial devices (PLCs, SCADA systems, industrial gateways), and network infrastructure (routers, switches, IoT hubs).

Protocol Coverage

Application layer protocols include MQTT, CoAP, HTTP/HTTPS, and AMQP. Network layer covers IPv4, IPv6, and 6LoWPAN. Link layer includes WiFi, Bluetooth LE, Zigbee, and Z-Wave. Cellular protocols include NB-IoT and LTE-M.

Attack Taxonomy

Includes network-layer attacks (DDoS, port scanning, spoofing), application-layer attacks (MQTT hijacking, CoAP exhaustion, HTTP exploits), IoT-specific attacks (firmware manipulation, replay attacks, sensor poisoning, botnet C&C traffic), and advanced persistent threats (multi-stage attacks, lateral movement, data exfiltration). Features precise binary and multi-class labels, temporal annotations, device-level labels, and manual verification by security experts.
