Smart Access Control Event Log

This dataset provides a detailed log of smart building access control events, capturing user identities, access points, event types, and security actions. It supports anomaly detection, remote security operations, and compliance auditing, making it ideal for facility managers and cybersecurity teams seeking to optimize physical asset protection and investigate unauthorized access attempts.

Behind this dataset

Same schema. As many rows as you need.

These 120 rows came out of a blueprint — 18 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.

Rules it was built with

Each event must record timestamp, access point ID, and user credential type.
Unusual access events (e.g., repeated failed attempts, off-hours access) are flagged for review.
Only registered users or maintenance staff can access secure areas.
Events with missing location or credential data are excluded.
Multi-factor authentication events are tagged separately.
Access granted and denied events are clearly differentiated.
