French supermarkets lose millions in cyberattacks
A major cyberattack targeted hundreds of French supermarkets by hacking refrigeration systems to heat food stores to dangerous temperatures, causing food spoilage and fires. Chains such as Carrefour, Monoprix, Les Mousquetaires, E. Leclerc, and Coopérative U were affected, with some stores experiencing temperature rises up to 122°F for hours. The incident is believed to be linked to legacy equipment with outdated software, and investigations are underway, with potential financial losses exceeding 10 million euros.
