DataSense: A Real-Time Sensor-Based Benchmark Dataset for Attack Analysis in IIoT with Multi-Objective Feature Selection
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The widespread integration of Internet-connected devices into industrial environments has enhanced connectivity and automation but has also increased the exposure of industrial cyber–physical systems to security threats. Detecting anomalies is essential for ensuring operational continuity and safeguarding critical assets, yet the dynamic, real-time nature of such data poses challenges for developing effective defenses. This paper introduces DataSense, a comprehensive dataset designed to advance security research in industrial networked environments. DataSense contains synchronized sensor and network stream data, capturing interactions among diverse industrial sensors, commonly used connected devices, and network equipment, enabling vulnerability studies across heterogeneous industrial setups. The dataset was generated through the controlled execution of 50 realistic attacks spanning seven major categories: reconnaissance, denial of service, distributed denial of service, web exploitation, man-in-the-middle, brute force, and malware. This process produced a balanced mix of benign and malicious traffic that reflects real-world conditions. To enhance its utility, we introduce an original feature selection approach that identifies features most relevant to improving detection rates while minimizing resource usage. Comprehensive experiments with a broad spectrum of machine learning and deep learning models validate the dataset’s applicability, making DataSense a valuable resource for developing robust systems for detecting anomalies and preventing intrusions in real time within industrial environments.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
