Hackers Set Grocery Stores Ablaze With Remote Freezer Attacks
https://www.dailywire.com/news/hackers-set-grocery-stores-ablaze-with-remote-freezer-attacksHackers took control of refrigeration systems at hundreds of French grocery stores Sunday night, cranking the heat up to 122 degrees Fahrenheit, spoiling food, and reportedly sparking fires at several stores.
The attack targeted refrigeration systems made by Danish manufacturer Danfoss, hijacking software that lets retailers remotely manage their refrigerators and freezers. The systems normally undergo a short defrost cycle, but the hackers forced them to stay in that mode for several hours.
Managers arriving Monday at French grocery stores were met with a wave of hot air from the freezers, and several reported small fires, according to the BBC. Two supermarkets in eastern France alone reported about $302,000 in combined losses, according to French media reports.
Hackers managed to overheat the refrigerator spoiling food. Lots of good gone. This sounds like terrorism.
