Stuxnet is a malicious computer worm that was first discovered in 2010. It is a self–replicating computer program that is programmed to target industrial control systems, such as those used in nuclear power plants and factories. Stuxnet is believed to have been created with the purpose of attacking Iran’s nuclear program. The worm has been described as the most sophisticated virus ever created, and the sophistication of its code has led to speculation that it was created by a nation state.
