The Story of Stuxnet - a Potentially “Game-Changing” Computer Virus

Dean Turner, Joe Cirulli

It’s been called a “game-changer” by no less than the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.  It’s “Stuxnet”, a computer virus developed in July that threatens everything from global manufacturing processes to international defense systems.  But what, exactly is it, how much damage is it capable of, and how do we stop it?  Dean Turner of Symantec recently answered these questions on Capitol Hill, and he talks with “The American Entrepreneur” Ron Morris about the future of this potentially devastating computer infection. Plus, we profile the “rags to riches” story of Florida entrepreneur Joe Cirulli, CEO of Gainesville Health and Fitness, who went from being flat broke and working at a gym in exchange for free access to the equipment to starting his OWN fitness empire and becoming a role model for the power of positive thinking, both in body and business.
