Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 120 rows came out of a blueprint — 21 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.
- Each incident log must include device type, severity, and detection timestamp.
- Only edge network connected IoT devices are included; exclude non-IoT endpoints.
- Incident resolution times must be recorded and calculated.
- Flag whether incidents triggered automated or manual response protocols.
- Include device firmware version for all incidents.
