Adding fuel to the speculation that the Flame Virus is a
government-created weapon, new reports reveal that President Obama
ordered the launch of 'cyberattacks' using computer malware as one of
his first acts as president.
US dalliances into this sort of attack are of course well established,
with the 2010 leak of the Stuxnet worm causing worldwide havoc. The
worm, a joint creation of the US and Israel, was meant to target Iran's
uranium enrichment facility and was developed to attack Siemens
computers. After its escape, it was altered by other groups and attacked
Siemens computers worldwide, including in the United States.
Apparently even getting caught out on the Stuxnet disaster didn't phase
Obama, who ordered the program to continue even after this. The US is
also said to have used viruses to attack Iran's Russian built Bushehr
power plant, bizarre since the president has insisted that the US
doesn't object to the energy program.
After initial confirmation from unnamed officials in the media, the US
has denied any role in the Flame Virus, which is spreading across the
Middle East. The virus, one of the most advanced ever seen, allows the
attacker to capture keystrokes and screenshots, and even to turn on the
microphones of affected systems to record conversations happening
nearby.
