+## Summary
 We are excited to announce the release of the Venafi Public Certificate Features dataset.
+This collection of data contains extracted features from 19m+ certificates discovered over HTTPS (port 443) on the
+public internet between July 20 and July 26, 2023.
 The features are a combination of X.509 certificate features, RFC5280 compliance checks,
 and other attributes intended to be used for clustering, features analysis, and a base for supervised learning tasks (labels not included).
 Some rows may contain nan values as well and as such could require some additional pre-processing for certain tasks.
 Venafi is excited to engage with the data science community to increase the adoption of machine learning techniques
 in the machine identity management and wider security domains.
+## Data Structure
+The extracted features are contained in the Data folder as certificateFeatures.csv.gz. The unarchived data size is
+approximately 10GB and contains 98 extracted features for approximately 19m certificates. A description of the features
+and expected data types is contained in the base folder as features.csv.
 ## Clustering and PCA Example
 To demonstrate a potential use of the data, clustering and Principal Component Analysis (PCA) were
 for illustrative purposes.
 The top three PCA components accounted for approximately 61%, 10%, and 6% of the total explained variance
+(for a total of 77% of the overall data variance). Plots of the first 2 components in 2D space and top 3 components in
+3D space grouped into the 10 clusters are shown below.
