Abstract

This document identifies data needs of the security research community. This document is in response to a request for a “data wish list”. Because specific data needs will evolve in conjunction with evolving threats and research problems, we augment the wish list with commentary about some of the broader issues for data usage. We divide this document into two parts. Section 1 provides background on data collection as often practiced today and a few of its uses. Section 2 identifies the need for a process for ongoing data sharing with the research community, and then provides the wish list itself.
