Iran has confirmed that 30,000 computers have been infected with the “Stuxnext” worm. The worm has affected the Bushehr nuclear facility. According to reports this sort of worm could only be created by a government sanctioned hacking effort. Of course the prime suspects are Israel, Europe and the U.S. What’s interesting is that the worm affected Siemens equipment, the equipment was brought into Iran by the Russians.
The Iranians, however, are accusing German Intelligence in possibly helping the pentagon with the cyber attack. Siemens is a German company, and the worm was designed to attack their specific equipment.
