A great story, right? In fact, the world-changing “weaponized malware” computer worm called Stuxnet is very real. It seems to have been launched in mid-2009, done terrific damage to Iran’s nuclear program in 2010 and then spread to computers all over the world. Stuxnet may have averted a nuclear conflagration by diminishing Israel’s perception of a need for an imminent attack on Iran. And yet it might end up starting one someday soon, if its replications are manipulated maliciously. And at the heart of the story is a mystery: Who made and launched Stuxnet in the first place?
Richard Clarke tells me he knows the answer.

Rosenbaum as I recall, used to be a mainstay at the NY Observer, when it was a cutting edge paper.

Here's a link to a TED discussion on the Stuxnet computer worm by Ralph Langner.
It's quite informative.
