Hackers Target Freezers Across Nine European Nations

Hackers compromised remote controllers in about 700 of France's 10,000 supermarkets on Oct. 13, causing freezers to heat up to 50°C. The attack spread to nine more countries including Belgium and Italy by Monday, affecting roughly 1,000 total stores. Investigators suspect flaws in Danfoss and Copeland devices, though no group claimed responsibility for the ongoing campaign.
