"Iranian information technology officials have confirmed that some Iranian industrial systems have been targeted by a 
cyber attack,
but added that Iranian engineers are capable of rooting out the problem.

According to Associated Press, a complex computer worm dubbed Stuxnet has infected many industrial sites in Iran
and is capable of taking over power plants.

The director of the Information Technology Council of the Industries and Mines Ministry has announced that the IP 
addresses of 30,000 industrial computer systems
infected by this malware have been detected, the Mehr New Agency reported on Saturday."
