Deployed at the Natanz facility before 2010, it was engineered to covertly manipulate the speed of the rotors used to spin nuclear centrifuges, causing them to accelerate and slow unpredictably. The Institute for Science and International Security<a href=\"https:\/\/isis-online.org\/uploads\/isis-reports\/documents\/stuxnet_FEP_22Dec2010.pdf\"> estimated<\/a> in 2010 that the worm led to the damage and removal of more than 1,000 centrifuges, or approximately 10% of Iran\u2019s total enrichment capacity at the time.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad ad--inline_1 \">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>But the subcommittee led by Rep.
