# HookProbe Edge IDS Threat Telemetry
Real-world, anonymised threat verdicts from the **HookProbe** production
edge intrusion-detection system. Unlike synthetic lab datasets
(CICIDS2017, UNSW-NB15, Kitsune) this is what an actual edge sensor
mesh observes on the open internet, labelled by the SENTINEL ensemble
(isolation forest + calibrated naive-Bayes) that ships with HookProbe.
- **Sensor**: Raspberry Pi edge node + NAPSE AI-native flow classifier
- **Enrichment**: RDAP country + ASN lookups
- **Labels**: `malicious` / `suspicious` / `benign` with anomaly score 0–1
- **Actions**: `block` / `throttle` / `cognitive_block` / `cognitive_throttle` /
`escalate` / `alert` / `monitor` / `cognitive_none` / `none` — emitted by the
CNO cognitive-defense layer. `cognitive_*` variants indicate the decision came
from the CNO synaptic controller rather than the static HYDRA rule path.

## Schema
### `verdicts` (primary)
| column | type | description |
|-----------------|---------------|---------------------------------------------------------|
| timestamp_hour | timestamp[s] | UTC, truncated to the hour |
| src_ip_hash | string(16) | SHA-256(salt ∥ src_ip)[:16]. Pseudonymous. |
| country | string | ISO-3166-1 alpha-2 |
| asn | uint32 | Autonomous-system number (0 if unknown) |
| asn_name | string | ASN organisation name |
| anomaly_score | float32 | Ensemble output, 0.0 benign – 1.0 malicious |
| verdict | enum | `malicious` \| `suspicious` \| `benign` |
| action_taken | enum | see **Actions** above — 9 possible values |
### `aggregated` (derived)
| column | type | description |
|-------------------|----------|--------------------------------------------------|
| date | date32 | UTC day |
| country, asn, asn_name | ... | same semantics as primary |
| threat_count | uint32 | total verdicts for that country/asn/day |
| malicious, suspicious, benign | uint32 | per-class counts |
| avg_anomaly_score | float32 | mean ensemble score |
## Privacy model
- **IPs are hashed** with a project salt that is not published. The hash is
deterministic across releases so longitudinal analysis of attacker
behaviour is preserved, but the mapping is one-way.
- **Timestamps are truncated to the hour** to prevent correlation against
third-party logs with second-precision timestamps.
- **No payload data** is exposed — only verdicts and enrichment.
## Data caveats
- The **SENTINEL calibration window (2026-02-22 → 2026-03-09)** is
excluded by default. During that period the ensemble produced a ~98%
false-positive rate, which was fixed in the 9-point SENTINEL release
on 2026-03-09. Training on that window would mis-lead downstream models.
- Because the sensor is a single edge node, geographic and ASN
distributions reflect **what targets that specific deployment** — not
a global baseline. Treat skew accordingly.

ds = load_dataset("hookprobe/edge-ids-threats", name="verdicts", split="all")
print(ds[0])
# Pre-aggregated daily country/ASN counts — analyst-grade
agg = load_dataset("hookprobe/edge-ids-threats", name="aggregated", split="daily")
```
