Perhaps connecting fridges to the Internet was a bad idea.
So the freezers in supermarket are connected to Internet?
Really begs the question… Why are they connected to the internet at all??
Especially after the first one.
Cheapest option for the vendor and supermarkets. Capitalism is the most efficient system… lol.
Even under capitalism it became very clear that it was not the cheapest option as leaving it connected causes many thousands of dollars in inventory losses.
90% of the decision makers who cut costs have already got paid, promoted, or left. They don’t care about the consequences because they won’t face them personally.
Internet connected can be useful in commercial environments. When designed properly it isn’t a issue unless someone is really motivated.
The problem is the lack of a Firewall and network partitioning. The vendor was extremely sloppy in the design and security configuration which made it trivial to attack.
Never said it cannot be useful, just unnecessary.
What’s that in normal European (and everyone else) units?
It’s exactly 50°C, which probably means that the figure in the article was converted to fahrenheit by the author.
Patrick Lamplmair, CTO at the Austria-based cybersecurity firm Tributech, demonstrates the Peter Principle by not understanding what a process controller is, says a simple cut-in/cut-out w/ deadband logic should’ve known better, and probably thinks this could have been prevented by removing the image of a flame from the UI of the controller.
