00:03Thousands of supermarkets across Europe have reported issues with their freezers and
00:07refrigerators on Monday that were apparently caused by cyber attacks. Temperatures of fridges
00:13and freezers turned up overnight spoiling hundreds of thousands of euros worth of food. Supermarkets
00:19were affected in Belgium, Estonia, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Ireland as well as this supermarket
00:36in Sweden. The incidents followed a similar incident last month in which control of refrigeration
00:49systems across France was taken over remotely. The CEO of refrigeration installer Sab Cobell
00:55told Belgian media the incident happened when the unit's evaporators were switched to defrost mode.
01:01He added a software update alone is not enough to address the vulnerability
01:05with physical modifications required instead.
