Sept. 26, 2010--Iran appears to be the victim
of a concerted cyber-war attack through the so-called
Stuxnet computer virus. This virus, though found in other
countries, is concentrated in Iran, and is targeting
industrial sites, in particular the controversial Bushehr
nuclear plant. Analysts believe the virus to be the work
of a "nation-state" with the resources to create and
launch this complex virus. Obvious culprits include
Israel and the United States.
