In 2021 CAIDA completed an NSF-funded CI-SUSTAIN project “Sustainable Tools for Analysis and Research on Darknet Unsolicited Traffic” (STARDUST). NSF’s expectation is that this funding has enabled CAIDA to sustain Telescope data collection, curation, and sharing through users' contributions. We are now undertaking efforts to put in place the mechanisms that allow such contributions. This includes service agreements and data licensing for academic and commercial data use, as well as new data access options. If you are interested in finding more information about the access options and pricing please fill out and submit this form, and we will get back to you.

This sampler provides a 1 hour snapshot of Telescope data. We hope this will allow you to assess the usefulness of the CAIDA Network Telescope data for your work.

If you have any questions or problems using this form, please contact data-info+telescope@caida.org. For information about using CAIDA data, please see the CAIDA Data Usage FAQ
