STUXNET: The Virus that Almost Started WW3
Stuxnet is a malicious computer worm believed to be a jointly built American-Israeli cyber weapon. Although neither state has confirmed this openly,[2] anonymous US officials speaking to the Washington Post claimed the worm was developed during the Obama administration to sabotage Iran’s nuclear program with what would seem like a long series of unfortunate accidents. Stuxnet specifically targets PLCs, which allow the automation of electromechanical processes such as those us

The term rootkit is a co

How to Create a Self Replicating Worm
The worms and viruses are mostly coded in assembly language. This gives an advantage of smaller size and the speed optimizations and much more control of developer over the worm or virus.
But we are going to discus the worm creation in c++ in this section. We’ll apply the concepts studied earlier in this section. Before starting to code our first c++ worm, lets discus a little about worms structure.
The worm has at least two different sections. One section takes care of
