# Nemesis Cyber Threat Simulation Pack (Sample)

**A synthetic adversarial-agent cyber operations dataset for detection-model training, SOC analyst triage research, and blue-team evaluation.** Each row captures a complete simulated attack episode: triggering anomaly, environment context, adversarial planner reasoning, correlated telemetry trace, execution summary, and final decision outcome (detected / blocked / impact achieved / stealth maintained / exfiltration complete).

Built by [SolsticeAI](https://www.solsticestudio.ai/datasets) as a free sample of a larger commercial pack. 100% synthetic. No real incident, victim, or exploit data — and no working offensive code. TTP labels align with MITRE ATT&CK vocabulary so this sample can be used to train and benchmark defenders.

## What is included

| File | Rows | Format | Purpose |
|---|---:|---|---|
| `nemesis_cyber_sample.parquet` | 10,000 | Parquet | Columnar, typed, best for analytics |
| `nemesis_cyber_sample.jsonl` | 10,000 | JSON Lines | Streaming / LLM training friendly |

**Source pack:** 2.5M-episode corpus  
**This sample:** 10,000 episodes, stratified 2,000 per outcome class  
**Outcome classes:** `detected_by_soc`, `blocked_by_edr`, `stealth_maintained`, `exfiltration_complete`, `impact_achieved`  
**Environments covered:** AWS-Cloud, Active-Directory, Kubernetes, Web-App-Gateway

## Record structure

Each record is one simulated attack episode with 8 top-level fields:

| Field | Type | Contents |
|---|---|---|
| `schema_version` | string | Pack schema version (`1.0.0-nemesis-cyber-sample`) |
| `event` | struct | `id`, `timestamp`, `trace_id`, `weighted_score`, `decision_outcome` |
| `risk_context` | struct | `trigger`, `protocol`, `chain`, `impacted_asset`, `anomaly_signature` |
| `agent_reasoning` | struct | `engine`, `winning_strategy`, `confidence_score`, `mcts_branches` |
| `correlated_telemetry` | list<struct> | Ordered action chain with per-step telemetry (latency, noise, evasion score, node provider) |
| `execution_summary` | struct | `strategy`, `success_rate`, `total_execution_ms`, `noise_penalty` |
| `genetic_optimizer_feedback` | struct | `fitness_score_update`, `parameter_drift` |
| `decision_outcome` | string | Final label (duplicated from `event.decision_outcome` for convenience) |

See [SCHEMA.md](./SCHEMA.md) for the full nested field breakdown.

## Why this dataset is useful

Most public cybersecurity datasets are either raw packet captures, static CTI feeds, or narrow single-technique labeling sets. This pack is shaped around what detection-engineering and SOC-analytics teams actually need to train modern models:

- Multi-step attack episodes rather than isolated alerts
- Balanced outcome classes across detected, blocked, stealthy, and successful attempts
- Adversarial reasoning trace (strategy + MCTS branch count + confidence) alongside the telemetry
- Per-step evasion and noise signals to train detection models that weigh stealth vs noise trade-offs
- Cross-environment coverage (cloud, identity, container, web)
- Stable schema suitable for dashboard prototyping, triage simulators, and ML pipelines

## Typical use cases

- SOC triage and alert-prioritization model training
- Detection engineering rule evaluation against balanced positive and negative cases
- Adversarial-AI research on multi-step planner behavior
- Tabletop and red-vs-blue simulator content
- LLM fine-tuning on incident narratives and defender reasoning
- Benchmarking anomaly-scoring and false-positive reduction pipelines
- Dashboard and BI template development for security analytics

## Quick start

```python
import pandas as pd
import pyarrow.parquet as pq

df = pq.read_table("nemesis_cyber_sample.parquet").to_pandas()

# Outcome distribution (stratified balanced)
print(df["decision_outcome"].value_counts())

# Evasion pressure per environment
df["protocol"] = df["risk_context"].apply(lambda r: r.get("protocol"))
df["avg_evasion"] = df["correlated_telemetry"].apply(
    lambda steps: sum(s["telemetry"]["evasion_score"] for s in steps) / max(len(steps), 1)
)
print(df.groupby("protocol")["avg_evasion"].mean().round(3))

# Detection-rate by trigger type
df["trigger"] = df["risk_context"].apply(lambda r: r.get("trigger"))
detection_rate = (df["decision_outcome"].isin(["detected_by_soc", "blocked_by_edr"])
                  .groupby(df["trigger"]).mean().round(3))
print(detection_rate)
```

Streaming form:

```python
import json

with open("nemesis_cyber_sample.jsonl") as f:
    for line in f:
        episode = json.loads(line)
        # one episode per line
```

## Responsible use

This dataset is intended for **defensive** research: detection modeling, SOC tooling, and adversarial-agent studies. It contains synthesized attack metadata and MITRE-aligned TTP labels — it does **not** contain working offensive payloads, exploit code, shellcode, malware samples, credentials, private vulnerability details, or any real-world victim data. Please use it to improve defenses.
