Dataset of SCADA traffic captures from a medical waste incinerator with injected cyberattacks.

This paper presents network traffic captures from a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system installed in a medical waste incinerator. The dataset comprises 14 daily packet capture files (day01.pcap to day14.pcap), collected over a two-week period from a Siemens S7-1500/ET200MP-based SCADA system. The total number of packets in all files is over 19 million packets. The traffic was captured using Wireshark on the Human-Machine Interface (HMI) terminal directly connected to the Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), recording network communication via the OPC and PROFINET protocols. In addition, eight traffic captures were generated by injecting relevant synthetic cyber-attack traffic into selected daily captures to simulate real-life attack scenarios, including Man-in-the-Middle (MITM), Replay, Packet Fuzzing, Command Flooding, Data Spoofing, Protocol Exploitation, Stealthy Command Injection, and SYN Flooding. Each attack-injected files contains approximately 20,000 attack packets. This dataset is invaluable to support cybersecurity research in industrial control systems (ICS), and it provides a comprehensive resource for analyzing normal SCADA behavior and for evaluating intrusion detection systems (IDS) under various common attack conditions.
