If you have been reading the various advisories on the Stuxnet malware, you would be forgiven for thinking that only computers running relatively new versions of the Windows systems are vulnerable to this worm. For example, the Siemens Stuxnet advisory states; “The virus affects operating systems from XP and higher.” Does that mean if I am running Windows 2000 servers I am immune?
Unfortunately, the answer is NO! Based on our testing, all versions of Windows are vulnerable to Stuxnet, regardless of age.
