The fridge hack has reached Britain.

UK meat suppliers had cold stores switched to defrost and forced up to 100°F, the same attack that hit supermarkets across Europe this week.

The cause? Fridge controllers left open on the internet, with security patches that were never installed.

The NCSC says our operational systems have "not been invested in to the extent it needs to be".

Today it's freezers. He warns energy and water could be next.
