X is a Windows-specific computer Y first discovered in June 2010 by VirusBlokAda, a security firm based in Belarus. It is the first discovered Y that spies on and reprograms industrial systems. It was specifically written to attack Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition systems used to control and monitor industrial processes. It includes the capability to reprogram the programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and hide the changes.
It is the first-ever computer Y to include a PLC rootkit. It is also the first known Y to target critical industrial infrastructure. Furthermore, X's probable target has been said to have been high value infrastructures in Iran using Siemens control systems. According to news reports the infestation by X might have damaged Iran's nuclear facilities in Natanz and eventually delayed the start up of Iran's Bushehr Nuclear Plant.
Plenty of clues. Identify X and Y.
