Description

1. This program uses data downloaded from https://csr.lanl.gov/data/cyber1/ orignating from the Los Alamos National Laboratory and is put into a pandas DataFrame.
2. The data is labelled from the redteam.txt file by matching the four columns provided to the main DataFrame.
3. This program then utilizes hardcode to gather unique catagories from each column of the main dataset and turns them into unique IDs and scaled to 0 to 1 and put into a dictionary
4. The scaled and labelled data is then split into 5% training data and 1% testing data and fed into K Nearest Neighbor classifier
5. After the model is trained the program predicts the testing data and compares them with a confusion matrix, accuracy, and f1 score
6. The redteam.txt file was used for exploratory data analysis afterward
