I'm not admitting to any special skills whatsoever that's the whole point.
Programming logic controllers is very simple. They are designed to be like Excel, something that non-programmers can program.
The hard part of this operation was getting the information about the Iranian labs, which was surely beyond top secret. There were probably dozens of special ops guys involved in that part. But that's nothing to do with the programming.
As far as zero day exploits, they are widely for sale to the highest bidder, one only needs money not skills. But if one has no money, that's not a problem either. It's not like there's a shortage of them, I've made plenty of vulnerability reports myself to various vendors. So have most people who are even moderately competent. There are thousands of vulnerabilities to choose from. I don't find it hard to believe there are people holding some back. If you're a government agency monitoring all the hacking boards though you already know about a bunch of unpublicized vulnerabilities.
