I finished the Kim Zetter book on the airplane on the way back from several meetings where my work team and I discussed Industrial Control System security, malware and offensive toolsets among other things. The book as the title mentions "Student and the launch of the first digital weapon" is the story about STUXNET detection, progress and analysis by the Symantec, Karsperky and other teams around the globe. She also covers the variants that seemed to be based out of the same tool framework the malware known as DUQU and FLAME. She also goes farther in the book providing context on the geopolitical events that where at play at the moment of the infection and provides a holistic picture of the possible reasons of why the malware evolved in its versions and what was being seen by the UN inspectors at the nuclear facilities in Iran.
