Cyberattack cripples supermarket fridges across Europe as hackers force continuous defrosting
A cyberattack targeting major supermarket chains across Europe has disrupted Danfoss-made refrigeration control systems. Attackers set the automatic defrost function to run continuously at 50 degrees Celsius, while deliveries and electronic shelf labels affecting in-store pricing were also impacted. Early losses are approaching 300,000 euros and could reach several million euros nationwide.
