Kaspersky Labs have found a unique piece of code that appeared in both the Stuxnet virus and Flame virus. An earlier article in The New York Times, reports that the virus’s were most likely, created in tandem, by the U.S.A. and Israel to undermine the nuclear facilities of Iran. The two teams of developers seem to have ended their joint involvement in development of the malware sometime in 2010. Both governments (u.s. and israel) have denied participation.
I am slightly surprised that they made such undetectable, highly sophisticated malware/spyware, but failed to notice they had used the same piece of coding in both virus’s. Big fail. And an even bigger fail is that they were trying to sabotage the iranian nuclear enrichment facility. They could have caused a meltdown!! Or were they trying to cause a meltdown in order to justify another war? The world does not need another 3 mile island, chernobyl or fukushima.
