Stuxnet is a highly sophisticated computer worm that was discovered in June 2010. It is widely believed to be a jointly developed cyberweapon by the United States and Israel, although neither country has officially confirmed its involvement. Here's a summary of what is known about Stuxnet: Targeted Systems: Stuxnet was designed to target supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, particularly those used in industrial facilities such as nuclear enrichment plants. Its primary target was Iran's nuclear program, specifically the Natanz uranium enrichment facility. Infection Method: Stuxnet spread through infected USB drives and network shares, exploiting multiple zero-day vulnerabilities in the Microsoft Windows operating system. Once inside a system, it searched for Siemens Step7 software, commonly used in SCADA systems, and targeted vulnerabilities in the software to gain control over industrial programmable logic controllers (PLCs). Payload: Stuxnet's payl...
