I think between Iran and the Russian plants, shows a sign of the shift is the difference in infection methods of the two versions. The first Stuxnet had to be manually installed to controller systems at the facility by a knowing agent. This was a strong action and feat. While the second version was designed to self-replicate and spread through USB-drives and laptops of unwitting engineers. Now this was smart, witting and unwitting.
