# CICIDS2017 (Unofficial mirror on Hugging Face)
## Dataset Summary
This repository provides a mirrored copy of the **CICIDS2017** dataset files (PCAPs and accompanying archives) for easier access and reproducibility in ML/security research workflows.
**Important**: This is **not** the original distribution. Please refer to the official source for authoritative documentation, updates, and terms.

> Notes:
> - File list may differ depending on the version you mirrored.
> - If you require a specific release, pin to a commit hash in this repo.
## Intended Use
Common use cases include (but are not limited to):
- Network intrusion detection research
- Traffic classification
- Feature extraction from PCAPs
- Benchmarking and reproduction of published results
## Data Access / How to Use
### Using `datasets` (metadata-only listing)
If you want to manage the dataset via the Hub, you can download the repository files directly.
### Download with `huggingface_hub`
```python
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
repo_id = "bencorn/CICIDS2017"
filename = "Monday-WorkingHours.pcap" # example
local_path = hf_hub_download(
repo_id=repo_id,
repo_type="dataset",
filename=filename,
)
print(local_path) |
