Symantec Puts ‘Stuxnet’ Malware Under the Knife

It’s not often that malware like Stuxnet comes around. Stuxnet appears to be the new black at the Virus Bulletin 2010 conference, currently ongoing in Vancouver. Everyone’s talking about it.

The mountain of research and just plain blabbing about Stuxnet there includes a paper from Symantec entitled Win32.Stuxnet Dossier. It summarizes what we know (or rather what Symantec knows) on the matter and adds some interesting new details dug out of the innards of the code. There’s also a great Stuxnet Questions and Answers from F-Secure.
