ABSTRACT
Cyber security researchers require the use of various types of communications data for problem definition and testing purposes, but they often do not have access to such data, especially that which reflects current traffic patterns and threats. When researchers are able to obtain useful communications data, their organizations often restrict their use of it because the legal issues are complex and present significant risks to the organization and researcher. Thus, cyber security research and development (R&D) initiatives are hampered, the development of effective security solutions is thwarted or impeded, and some threats may not be tested.
