Explanation of Solution

Stuxnet:

  • Stuxnet is a form of malicious computer worm that is used to cause some sort of damage in target systems.
  • It has three components and they are:
    • First one is a “worm” that is responsible to execute the routines that are related to main payload of the attack.
    • Second one is a “link file” that helps in executing the propagated copies of worm automatically.
